It's good to be back! I was in Game Show Hell last week........one they watched was filmed while REAGAN was president......I swear!

[Pistias]

Not likely. Tree-huggers or no, the environmentalists have their points.

"The only bad thing about that site is its once a week status."

I guessing that would be what they mean by Sunday...;o)
I've bookmarked it to my favorites. Nice to see a good site from the land of my ancestors.

That's not a layer of smog. It's a cloud of Maple-tree pollen.

LOL! I have a friend whose brother is 10 years older than she is. When they visit the brother all the brother and his wife want to watch is FISHING SHOWS!!! My friend about goes nuts!

This is like when we used to visit my in-laws, who had NO reading material in the house. Pretty slim pickings when you have to read the Missouri Cooperative Extension directions for planting root crops. Ha!

I wish they'd just change it to, eg, scotlandnews.co.uk and go to daily, but no doubt they have their reasons (sigh...). This site is once a week, and the NYT's is probably a daily (I refuse to go to sites that make one sign in to access articles , so I don't know...The only time I see NYT articles is here at FR.) There is no justice.

No reading material??? At all??? last time I checked, I have 2500 books ; I'm out of shelf space as well as wall space on which to build additional cases (small house) and I've been known to buy the same book twice by accident. Can't begin to imagine a house with no reading material.

[ladyinred]

Absolutely delightful. Now why don't American papers get this sort of snappy witted commentary?

Why? Because our papers are all ran by and written by leftists who wish that Bush were home on the ranch so their agenda would be more assured.

[ladyinred]

Loved this, refreshing change from the US Press and certain freeper threads!

[Miss Marple]

I used to do house calls as a design consultant for a furniture store. You would be amazed at the number of homes that have NO BOOKS! Pretty scary, as their vote counts as much as yours!

I can't live without books. I have to have something to read at all times!

[concerned about politics]

I can't live without books. I have to have something to read at all times!

Same here. We put in built-in shelving to take up less room. No fiction though, all referance. If we can't learn something from a book, we don't read it.

[kaylar]

It is to be hoped that they are faithful users of their public and semipublic libraries (college and university libraries are worth whatever card fee they charge)but I doubt it.

[Shermy]

Good find. Steyn-esque parts.

[dixiechick2000]

"There is no justice."

'Tis all too true. *sigh*

I don't go to the NYT because I don't want to give their website a "hit".
Call me ruthless...

[shadowman99]

The Young Ones won't be young for very long....

[ken5050]

Enough to make me want to go out and order haggis.....( well, not quite)

[gcruse]

I figured as much. Thanks for the facts.

[CyberAnt]

I agree - what a great article. And ... one of my countrymen! WhooHooo!

[patricia]

THANKS for a GREAT post! If you have a ping list for this favorite of yours ... please add me to the list.
