    Bruno, I did not post any link it was posted by Nish Sivakumar. Nor do I agree with your postulation. Links on pages that are linked to are not being recommended by the poster, just the original page. If we follow the logic, then a poster should follow every link on a page and links on those pages, forming a possibly infinite chain. The truth is that I'm not particularly offended by your link, it has no interest to me, but it has the potential to offend others. My major point is that it was both off topic and potentially offensive (especially the word "Hot")and the link should at least have been covered with an appropriate caveat. Something like "there was a link on that page to girlfriends of sports starts (warning: might cause offense)".

    Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

    Phil, please, it was a link I "found" on the page the original link was! "found" is is an understatement, he was obviously. _I_ _am_ _not_ responsible for that! Kind regards, Bruno

      Bruno, it's not a personal attack, just a reminder that some content is questionable. If HR had walked by my desk when I opened the link I would have expected a tongue lashing, if not a write-up. Just please exercise more caution!

          Nish, you realize that many CPers really don't know what an offspinner is! :-D

            Most sites show customized ads based on a user's browsing history, which is usually extracted via cookies. If you saw a slightly NSFW ad, then that's possibly because someone's been browsing that sort of site on that machine (not necessarily you). I did not see any NSFW ads on the page when I viewed it. FYI. :)

              Yeah, I figured a lot of people won't get this, but thought that enough would, so went ahead with it anyway. :)

                    Perhaps your IP address then, combined with OS version, browser history etc.
