my original comment on food stamps was made in a jestful resignment. I figure if Jeff is gonna spew his bile in my direction let him, deflect it and laugh with it...

Honestly I would never do it for the main reason that it would be stealing, and also personal pride... even if i needed it, i could never do it, it would be something that would make me feel a degree of self loathing, one of the few things.

I have a noble fault in my in-ability to steal... anything. A friend of mine once stole contact lens solution while i was at the store with him... i turned around, went back to the store, and told them we forgot to ring it up and I paid for it... just so it wasn't on my conscience.

I apologize if you really thought i was serious in that regard, i was just laughing off Jeff's comment and sliding past it... it gave me a giggle.

I may be cheap... but I am NOT a thief, a fraud, or someone who would accept a handout from anyone... even the government.
