Why get all nasty and defensive about one's reputation? Does this seem like the Silliman others know? Odd. And distasteful.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005587475387261208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16341497.post-75775473206564273472008-10-08T23:19:00.000-04:002008-10-08T23:19:00.000-04:00I was, and you're right -- I always think that sho...I was, and you're right -- I always think that show is earlier than it is.

Remember, my post is about the three main reasons people who <I>are</I> irritated by it are irritated by it.
