I know What I Like

You are going to swear I am making this up, but it's the sad truth.

I was so amused by the story of Michaelangelo's David getting a bath that I decided to use a photo of David as my Windows Desktop on my computer at the nursing school. No big deal, right. It's art...it's even religious art.

OK, yes, I realize that he is nude (and don't he look fine)and yes Michaelangelo included a penis. It's even circumcised because David was King of the Jews and Mike paid attention to details.

So, the co-worker drops by my cube to blather about something, sees David and I swear the woman gasps. Gasps like she saw a mouse or something, instead a photo of a giant marble man complete with dick.

'You better get that off your computer, right now' she says'

'What?' I say,totally clueless

''You can't have a naked man as your wallpaper. You'll get in trouble'

Ok, We have received e-mail forbidding pornography on University time...like that really needed to be explained to adults. There is even some watchdog software that tracks where you have been on the web.

Hello,I am writing in my journal now and even though I used the word 'penis' I am on my lunch break, so get out of my business, Big Brother

I look at my co-worker. 'You are kidding, right' Please tell me you are kidding I am afraid this bitch considers Mary Englebreit art

'But you can see his THANG' she whines and the points to the offending bit of marble.

I smile sweetly. 'Honey, you have a husband, 3 sons and are a nurse. You must have seen one before' She blushes and moves on to the next cubicle to annoy someone else. Tittering erupts from surrounding cubibles

I may not know much about art, but I know what I like
