(I actually composed this one yesterday. It’s been a very long day)

More on rising violent crime in the UK: Scottish psychologist Dr. Ian Stephen gives some appalling advice to potential crime victims. Wretchard recalls where he’s seen this type of advice before.

Val takes down the Che Guevara spin and gets quoted about it in the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Additionally, here’s a picture of his fine self.

Accentuate the positive: DarkStar has some constructive suggestions for the black right and the black left.

Andrew Ian Dodge gives us a list of the latest politically-correct terminology.

Conversely, The Lion has a transcript of a very un-PC Carl’s Jr. commercial. Oh, Jacques Chirac will be ready to declare war! :::shudder::::

DCGI, an air traffic controller, is the relay for a cool exchange between a civilian Beechcraft Baron pilot and a B-52 pilot.

Stay Away From Musicians: Key tells a tale from her wayward youth (which I’m not so sure has ended).

And a Christmas poem for the Rough Men and Women from Indigo.

When I read stuff like that Scotch doctor's advice, I am reminded of the old, stupid advice to girls that resistance would only make a rapist angry. Lots of girls died quietly in obedience to that stupidity. Combine that with the banning of fox hunting in Scotland and with their disbanding of the Black Watch, a fine Infantry unit that just recently made a bayonet charge, and I must assume that everyone who matered has already left Scotland. Keep the distilleries and turn off the rest of the lights.

Thanks for links.

Thanks for the link-up. I was afraid I may be over-poeming lately!!! Getting some just too good not to share.

Juliette,

The day I have to give advise like that presented by the good Scottish doctor to people when I do my little "community policing" talks to various groups in town is the day I retire from police work and build a "panic room" to huddle in.
Thank God for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

I am liking the Baldiluvin!

Thanks for the link-love Juliette. I do fear the youth is ending, even if the wayward spirit perseveres!

I prefer the Islay single malts myself, particularly Laphraoig and ardbeg -- the peatier oiler and more mediciney, the better. But they're sufficient reason to never nuks Scotland.
