    Ptolemy I was not all that handsome and his inbred family got no better.

    Ptolemy may had been ugly but he got feces done with the Makedonian army under Alexander, and he founded an AEgyptian Empire for 300 years. :) he was one of the good ones... His progeny? ....well, what do you expect from in-breeding... :)

    Ok guys, this started out tongue in cheek wordplay, possibly to trap some poor initiate and get them zapped, so it stops now before that happens. Thanks.

    Not sure to what you might be referring, and I'm baffled by the edit. I'm from West Virginia and that's an old joke about people from my state. And, in fact, I didn't even finish the joke. Personally, it wasn't offensive in the least nor explicit in any way. Trap? Trap who and for what reason?

    OMG: I was the one who posted it. I am VERY baffled! It was a VERY friendly joke, as I live in APPALACHIA myself! :)

    Who knows? Sometimes I wonder what will set off alarms. I accept it, but still baffled.

    If the comment had only been visible to the individuals living there, I wouldn't have seen it at all. But our comments are visible to the whole world, and the forum should try to be neutral as to inside jokes, slang, and what is deemed OK personally. Much of the 1950's TV basis to the rules are to try and minimize statements that can be derogatory or hurtful to any group of members. It isn't perfect, but it does allow the forum to try and be available for all ages and locations. Behind the times?? Well isn't that part of the name of this sub forum ? ;)

    I was enjoying the coins, so lets stay with those.
