UPDATE: A reader makes the observation that the media sorts think of themselves as extraordinarily smart and educated when statements like the above suggest that they lack the intelligence of some household appliances. Just because you are

The Swells such as these are nothing more than the perenniel, compulsive Mutual Admiration Society.
