This Just In

Today is Sunday, 28 November 2010.

The latest Wikileaks document dump demonstrates that the USA/USE diplomatic services do all the nasty things that imperial diplomatic services have always done since the invention of empire.

Oh.

And, in other news: water is still wet, the sky is still blue, there’s gambling in the casino, and publicity-whore Rep. Peter King (R-NY), who wants Wikileaks designated a “foreign terrorist organization”, is still batshit crazy.

I’m shocked, shocked.

And you love it because it gives you something to talk about.

Piffle! I should like nothing better than a world in which there were no injustices needing to be brought to book.

What's "brought to book?"

If someone is "brought to book," he is punished or made to account for something he has done that is evil, improper or wrong.

OK, thank you. Some of us don't have graduate level educations.

To "wondering":

Sorry. My bad. I thought you actually wanted to know what "bringing to book" meant. What you really wanted to do was snipe and be snarky (rudely sarcastic or disrespectful), while announcing the fact that you do not have a "graduate level" education, and chastising those who do. Whatever your education level, surely you are able to access a computer (as evidenced by your reading, and commenting on, this blog), and can use it to your advantage by looking up the definition of words and phrases with which you are sadly, and inexplicably, unfamiliar. I find this is always preferable to advertising the fact that my education, or my ambition, is lacking.

OK, you've smacked me down. I won't bother you again.
