But it does make me wonder - rcrocket: what was your intent in posting this? What was your purpose? I wouldn't think that this board is full of social acquaintances with whom you'd like to share this; so why would you open yourself up to the easily predicted abuse by pointing this out?


I enjoyed Bob posting this. It is a proud parental moment to have you child be a model on the front cover of a non-nudie magazine.

Wow, you can really set yourself up for abuse if you don't post anonymously.

I think it is funny. Nor how would I really know anyway one way or the other.

Would you let your kids pose for Nazi propaganda if you lived in Germany 60 years ago? I think you would.



This deserves a song, a poem, and a long list of Jeff Foxworthy one liners (you might be an exmo if...) But, you know, I'm trying to get away from that now...

The temptation, however, is well nigh unbearable.

I think he might because there'd be thugs like you with guns telling him he had to.



Thank you, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Who the hell is RC Rocket?

That's quite a name. I wish people would use actual names around here instead of posting anonymously. If I am going to libel someone, I want to know their real name.

Yong Xi
that's rcrocket as in Robert Crocket.

I chose to use the temple names given to my wife and I. They told us they were more important than our real names.

May we ask what your real name is?
