No. This couldn't have POSSIBLY been any better, well, you could have perhaps had an "All ind06" issue, but other than that I really don't see how this week's WIR could be improved upon.
And that bear didn't eat you JamesMarcus, it was FORAGING inside you because you didn't hang yourself up in a tree after eating dinner.

And the PG-13 survived!
What a relief that is! I think..
My only line of defence would be "It wasn't me, sir!"
I should have propped my eyelids open with matchsticks and spent a nuit blanche tending this unruly offspring.
Leaving responsibility with a third party, now missing on parade, was a mistake. Let's hope that he hasn't taken the drop and that no-one's admitting it!
That would require me to fall on my sword - ready sharpened and shined, naturally.
Naturally some of our ardent female members sought provocation of a different quality which was, apparently successfully, supplied by one of out younger members, read propellerites, and much appreciated, judging by the virtual oohs and aahs of satisfaction which were emitted.
Late disclaimer! My attorneys Messrs Wily, Old, Fox and their degenerates will handle all claims pertaining to this matter, not excluding undesired pregnancy, fake or real, endangering priapism, etc.

Good coverage for the week in review! I am writing a letter to Amtrak, about those new train stations, like they use to have across America.
The proceeds from the book needs to go to Propeller!
Thanks James Marcus!

The shocker of the week for me goes to Scott. Maybe one gets a conscience after leaving Washington. There's a story to chase...

wow, it really took guts to speak up about the wrong-doings 5 years after it mattered and we all knew about it.

On the Washington Post blog, iamamerican wrote, "have yet to do a "James Hatfield" on McClellan, suggests this book is "authorized" as inoculation to prevent a full-blown impeachment and treason trial..." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/ar... See page 9. I could do without some of iamamerican's more bizarre ideas, but I agree with him about McClellan's book.
This was the first time I heard of James Hatfield, and now I know what happens to a writer who exposes the Bush syndicate. See "The Death of Jim Hatfield." http://www.davidcogswell.com/Essays/DeathHatfie...

Yes the way gas prices are going up we may have to go back to the horse and saddle. Watch out for "road apples." Happy trails to you...
