#2 I read a lot of fiction and I usually manage to finish even the most dismally awful crap. I never managed to finish a Kiellor novel. Which makes it crap in a class of its own.

That's funny; I never managed to start one!

There's a meme growing about how we're a nation in decline. I think I'd start pointing out, if anybody listened to me, that if we're a nation in decline it'd be precisely because we listened to the people like Keillor.

I'd be real happy to see the nation go on a reindustrialization binge, myself. It'd be great fun watching the inhabitants of Lake Woebegone taking the gaspipe at all the drilling and the smokestacks and such.
