Keith;

To see how far this "offensive speech" nonsense can be taken, even
"Fuzzy" could have a racial connotation to someone who sees the world
thru a lexicon of political correctness; check this out:

I'm kind of with Tom on this one.... there is no derogatory intent to
the 
statement, in the future understand it's ment to mean FUZZY,  I've said
this 
for years and never found anyone overly offended by it....   Shoot half
the 
things I say are offensive...  Buckwheat being the worst to some folks
and 
the reality is that it's never been intended as anything less then a
simple 
slight.. a kindly phrase... ( often times used when I shouldn't have 
forgotten someones name )
