 Way to go JOAN! You & Russel should get together on TV. I am sure Russel has been called worse and bet he will come to your aid. You are a real US treasure. Bob, Arizona

You may have made a television faux pas, but at least you're putting it out there as a matter of fact. Just thank goodness you didn't spit on the sidewalk in the Phillipines.
