How dare he/she/it. If you don't know what the hell I'm talking about, click on Creek Running North. Big hero, threatening an elderly dog. Chris, people are jumping up and down worldwide with rage on your behalf. How dare they. HOW DARE THEY. You know what to blame! Twisty, thoughts to you during whatever they're doing to you.

You know what to blame! Twisty, thoughts to you during whatever they’re doing to you.

For one thing, some of us "squat, goblin-like" people are also intelligent and creative, I'll have you know. The BBC guy is an idiot and was probably put on the air as something to laugh at.

Twisty: I'd enjoy reading your thoughts, if you'd care to revisit the question. The Dawkins thing again:

It explains why you haven't posted about the new Lifetime movie, "Why I Wore Lipstick to My Mastectomy." The title alone is right in your strike zone -- seems hardly necessary to actually see the film. Forgive the sports metaphor, and blame on. Hope things are going OK in Dallas, Twisty.

Your wordsmithing often gives me a mental charlie horse, though. I just wish you wouldn't sugar-coat your commentary. You make me laugh and think at the same time, Twisty.

Looked it up. Bravo TV in the United States is different from the Bravo satellite channel, which claims to be "A televisual broadcaster for the modern gentleman" (http://www.bravo.co.uk/). Gentleman, as in Gentleman's Club? I keep hoping the BBC article will be unmasked as a Man Show-type joke, like the Onion story a few years ago that was picked up as fact by the Chinese newspaper. It's just too perfectly awful to be true. I was wondering about that too. Looked it up.
