Weird random image

For some reason, when I was thinking about this news report that some dickwads have said MTV's "Skins" is child pornography, there came to my mind an image of a rather butch man with a couple days worth of beard growth, wearing a Stetson, smoking, and being asked about it. His response was to exhale some smoke and say, "Sounds to me like those folks have never seen a real child, have only heard about them from rumors and speculation; they saw 'Skins,' and decided the people in it fit the description. Which, in my opinion, is like only having heard a description of a duck-billed platypus and deciding, upon seeing a bush baby, that it was a platypus."

My guess is that mistaking 'Skins' for any kind of pornography is like mistaking an axlotyl for a warthog.
