the joys of talkback radio

yesterday while going to newmarket in the car, i was listening to the lil blurbs they had on talk back radio of the section 59 protests that happened yesterday or was it the other day...... and few made me laugh aka the children comments from the pro "smacking" side....... huh? im sorry but i dont ever remember any time during my childhood where i supported being smacked..... is'nt that what most of ran away from when ma or pa got out the wooden spoon....or screamed our full names and told us that we were in big trouble....mmmm
