Damn the censorship board! I mean, what if someone is innocently writing about a male chicken? "Rowsdowers" are known for their beautiful plumage, with proud, brightly-colored tailfeathers and grand crests. "Rowsdower"s also are known for their aggression toward other "Rowsdower"s, at the point of fighting to the death for the claim to mate with a nearby hen. Sometimes "Rowsdower"s are used illegally in "Rowsdower" fights, a sport particularly loved in Mexico. This inhumane practice of "Rowsdower" fighting results in lost feathers, shredded flesh, and much bloodshed.

But many "Rowsdower"s are not particularly aggressive, and can even be kept as pets. Beautiful "Rowsdower"s are shown in county and state fairs. It has been said that there is a special pride felt by the owner of a prize-winning, stately "Rowsdower". A "Rowsdower" by any other name would still make one's heart skip a beat. Yes, the "Rowsdower" is a proud, colorful creature, one of nature's finest works of art."

A complete disaster, I tell you!

i don't like cocks, I was attacked by a cock when I was little, and I've hated the things ever sence.
i've only seen Dogma, I find it good for a brainless laugh,

I think that a couple of Kevin Smiths movies are played out, but I’m not sure if he is. I think that Clerks was a product of its time. It was relevant when it came out in the early 90’s, but things have changed since then (big time) and the characters in that movie who I could once identify with now seem whiny. Does anyone remember how good we had it in the early 90’s? We were spoiled as hell, and I think that Clerks and Mall Rats reflect that. Dante’s problems don’t seem so significant post 911. I’m going to wait until I see Jersey Girl before I write him off completely; I just hope that it’s better than Jay and Silent Bob!

Fair enough, MonsterX. I respect your level-headed opinion. Actually, I never even considered the post-9/11 factor. That does play a big part in the irrelevance of the movie now.

So it must be difficult for you to watch The Final Sacrifice. Or Jack Frost, lots of cocks in that one.
