blzrul Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 It's on the front page of the Seattle PI too. I'd rather he was not smoking and was on base in America playing ping-pong because there were no wars, but it is what it is. I hope he comes home, and quits smoking.

I dig the sports section. 111513[/snapback] I'll give their sports coverage props (not hard to be the best in the city when you're competing with the NY Times, though). But overall, they're a tabloid in the grand tradition of British trash journalism. And they're a bad one...if I want to read tabloid journalism, I'll pick up the Weekly World News, which is at least creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His or her establishment would then be searched, and the owner could be fined once again for "Ashtray Possession." Nice work leftists! Now, we are over there concerned about "freedom."
