Before we go much further on the "Madoff in Jail" thing .......

[Stinky The Clown]

.... I'm going to propose a pledge that we all self-impose a moratorium on "bending over for the soap" jokes, prison rape jokes, and other utterances of this sort.

In the past, I've been guilty of this sort of thing, too. Somehow, in this day and time, I am finding it very unfunny.

I pledge not to make jokes of the type cited above.

1. THANK YOU!

I sure hope it works here! I am SO tired of the junk around here.

2. any news on where he's going to be held?

In a FAIR world, he'd be in Rykers. But he's not likely to be there.

4. I started a thread earlier today asking the same thing .....

.... someone said they thought it was The Tombs.

I, personally, have no clue.

But wherever it is, I want him in a place where he hears the screaming and yelling and threats 24/7, keeps his pants urine soaked, and suffers sleep deprivation based on his own fears.

3. Right on! Thanks for taking a stand!

In any case, our time and energy would be much better spent on looking into who HELPED Madoff pull off his scam. Seems to me there could be some very interesting connections to explore.

10. rape is funny? Harming others is funny? How about torture, is that funny too?

[BuyingThyme]

11. Yes, rape, cancer, torture., Hitler.

People build careers on this stuff.

Others deal with their realities.

9. Funny like McCains joke about women getting raped?

I didn't think it was funny when McCain jokes about gorillas raping women and women enjoying it - but maybe it really was a good joke and I didn't understand it.

[BuyingThyme]

12. I don't know that one.
