Have you ever been touched (literally)? Now, have you ever touched someone else? Are those two acts quite different or not? If no one has touched you (lets just say in the past hour), but you patted a friend on the back, have you been touched? You don't have to be a Democrat to see the difference.

Also, like a politician, you took my words "I have never been touched" out of context. In response to comments like: "You will get clobbered soon enough" - I replied that I have never been touched in 35 years. I have also, more than once here on BF, admitted, and given details, of my "touching" some other folks cars with my bike. Also, my wrecks could very easily have been 36 or 37 years ago.

So now....you may bite me.
