Todd,

If you stop to read my original posting, you will see that I did not
say that according to me the three biggest lies are ...

I said there was a book (giving credit for what I read) and that book
had 3 lies for every occasion.  I then quoted what the book said were
the 3 biggest lies.

To claim that I am attempting to "put down" (your words) anyone 
is going a little too far.  No matter who we are or what we are,
we should be able to laugh at ourselves.  People who know me can
certainly attest to my ability to do so.

The next time you want to flame, you should not flame out of context.
I suppose 'the check's in the mail' also offends someone.
