Or is that just manners? IDK. It is weird if you think about it...<br /><br />On another note- I've been addicted to a pod cast lately called Infants on Thrones. I literally can't get enough. I go through like 3 a day. Do you like pod casts or listen to them?

It's not necessary, though if someone says it, I do realize that they mean well. <br /><br />A friend of mine, with whom I work with, and is atheistic as I, would sometime say "Zeus bless" instead of "God bless".
