The poolhall's a great equalizer. In the poolhall, nobody cares how old you are, how young you are, what color your skin is or how much money you've got in your pocket... It's about how you move. I remember this kid once who could move around a pool table like nobody had ever seen. Hour after hour, rack after rack, his shots just went in. The cue was part of his arm and the balls had eyes. And the thing that made him so good was... He thought he could never miss. I know, 'cause that kid was me.

Stop singing!
"This request was simply made by a staff member who was attempting to be sensitive to the celebrity guest, without considering the wider implications ... or consulting with her supervisor for guidance," Graham said in an e-mail to the newspaper.
That's it right there. That's the root of the problem. It's not that people are offended. I allege that the vast majority are not. It that some who are not in whatever group is affected, wants to show how "sensitive" and "aware" they are. IMO, they only show their own bigotry.

Hmmm..lets see...Neil Diamond...Jewish..recorded a Christmas album
Barry Manilow...Jewish...recorded a Christmas album
Barbra Streisand...Jewish...recorded a Christmas album.
Guess all the PC folk should take the hint....and not assume a person of a non Christian faith cannot enjoy Christmas music
