SO RIGHT, SO OFTEN

Tuesday, December 14, 2004

Years ago I contended in a debate at my university that AIDS was not a disease of just the homosexual and that it would one day become epidemic among heterosexuals. Many of the publications of the time even went so far as to say that AIDS could not be contacted through heterosexual relationships. I made many assertions and predictions back then, and to date, I have been right. Americans place too much faith in their scientists and their research. The following must be read to be believed. http://apnews.myway.com/article/20041214/D86VM0T80.html Maybe next time you'll come first to the News Snipett for your information...

"Snipet" (pronounced: snipe - it) is not a word.It is a derivative of two words: "Snipe" and "Snippet".

Miriam Webster defines Snipe as: to aim a carping or snide attack, or: to shoot at exposed individuals (as of an enemy's forces) from a usually concealed point of vantage.

Miriam Webster defines Snippet as: : a small part, piece, or thing; especially : a brief quotable passage.

In short, "Snipets" are brief, snide shots at exposed situations from a concealed vantage point.
