[Vision2020] Black History Month

[g. crabtree]

The bet you lost so abysmally to Donovan said nothing about profanity or name calling. The bet was to avoid insult and you failed in the endeavor eight days into the wager. That said, I am greatly amused by your questioning my "situational ethics." The way I figure it a guy who will welch on a bet made so publicly doesn't have much of a grip on ethics, situational or otherwise.

"Honor and shame from no condition rise; Act well your part, there all the honor lies."

Or in hansen's case, fly's
