Kinda corney...

after re-reading the original post...I honestly think we all need to take a step back and think....would it have been funny at ALL if I had replaced Ghandi's name with "my neighbor" instead? because honestly, that is how general I took the "joke" to be...and if I had put "My neighbor walked barefoot most of his life" and so on...we all would have laughed.

and since that is how general I took the whole thing to be....I guess I didn't see anything wrong with it.

so let's all try to re-read it and instead of Ghandi's name...replace it with "my neighbor" or "my boss" or "my boyfriend" or whoever you would like to put in the place.

Sometimes, even in the most innocent of circumstances, things go awry and humility is called for. Perhaps this whole episode was meant to be a lesson in humility for me.

I just took as a clever play on words. I guess I've always thought of Ghandi more of a political figure than a religious . . . . .more like George Washington or Abraham Lincoln than Mother Teresa. I have been enlightened. (Is that in bad taste too?) I think you were right on the original spelling though, Gandhi.

You know guys I laughed. Mostly because my children are younger and spelling supercalifredgulicious is a family joke. I know nothing about gandhi(sp).
