But the attack is nothing more than an odorous gas cloud. Mr. Franke-Ruta's accuses the New York Times of being "shoddy" for mentioning Sailer, and calls Sailer's opinio
Reminds me of "Drowning by Numbers". A delightful and very English movie about multiple murders, the Michael Nyman score always puts me in a good mood.
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting.
DeleteYeah he should have gone out like Dick Shawn. He died while doing a crazy act on stage before an auditorium full of college students. He suffered a massive heart attack, spasmodically flopping around on the stage for a few seconds before expiring. The kids in the audience erupted in hysterical laughter for several minutes before they realized it wasn't an act.
DeleteHopefully I don't die typing a post about Whitby.
