  • Some good unintentional humor in that piece. First, the menacing graffiti that prompted the added security- "LION KILLER" scrawled on his garage door in spray paint and, without a trace of irony, a bunch of pigs' feet dumped in the driveway. OOOH Lion killer!! So TF what? Maybe if they had said 'Poacher' it would have been more of the pejorative they were searching for. Also, the bit about 'Zimbabwean officials are currently seeking his extradition' Good luck!

      They have back-tracked on that:

        Zimbabwe investigated and determined the dentist did nothing wrong. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...ling/73811010/

          No, I actually meant that as a question. Maybe it did.

            I don't care about sympathy, I'm just Mac talking to Jeff here. The groundlings can keep casting aspersions and confirming their obtuseness. I actually care about your opinion which is why I responded; yes, I get what you're saying, but I think a mob has to have a locus, like facebook or twitter or somewhere that something can trend. I stayed off those sites to talk this about precisely so that I wouldn't be inflammatory to those who are easily inflamed. People here think differently and deeper about stuff, so I purposefully didn't add my voice to the masses, yet you accused me of doing so anyway, which I take exception to and whose logic I consider facile.

                That last sentence is an abomination. Kids, let this be a reminder that when sentences get too long, it's easy to lose track of the subject and the object.

                      I think it is funny watching wuap act so much smarter and in tune with the world than everyone else. Other than that, it isn't all that interesting.

                        Well, he probably is smarter than most. Maybe not most here, but most in the world. Just like I'm richer than most people in the world!

                          ¿De veras? Facile debería ser sumamente fácil para ti.

                            After doing so, did you draw the conclusion that Wuap is a pompous ass?

                              Somewhere I read that if you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room. KatyLied is in the wrong room.
