Is That a Good Thing?

To be on Bin Laden's required reading list?

...Bin Laden also recommended reading books by American authors Noam Chomsky and Michael Scheuer, a former CIA analyst, officials said. Chomsky's book cites various examples of American imperialism, while Scheuer's book argues that the U.S. does not understand the Islamic predicament.

Personally, I'd be willing to take a pass.

Well, you aren't a narcisttic, anti-Western, academically limited, fame & fortune seeking, hypocritical, professional hack, Sis. Your judgement remains sounds.

Those media whores, not so much.

She is not a "professional hack" as you so scandalously refer to her, Jeff.

She does it for free.

Hmmmm.

I've heard about this "O" book club.

I just never realized that the "O" was for Osama.

No, Mr. Bingley, she's not a professional hack, as I do not scandalously refer to her as. She has a heart of gold, and gives away hackiness for free, every day, right here at Swilling HQ.

Speaking of which.....just how much have you drank already?

Er...enough!

Hmmm.

The answer is ... never enough!
