um...she's a real gem, who knows her way around a gerund. You should go out, say to a library, and check out her books, most notably "Southern Ladies and Gentlemen" and "With Malice Toward All". Her books on misanthropy make Bob Tyrell look like a kindergartner.
This is one smart cookie and Ann should perk up and listen to what she says.
Then again, your responses, if meant seriously and you could well be kidding, would be just what Ann has decided will play and what Florence is lamenting is the state of even conservative education.
I'll opt for the chance you're kidding, though and just consider this one of those times when I can give Florence the nod she has richly earned.
Sorry Mr. Bow, I wasn't kidding. It would appear that you know more about her than I do but if this is how she writes, I think she's a bore.
Maybe you know, does she really think the 'horticulture' joke was that funny and witty?
I don't know what Ann decides will play but she seems to be genuine to me, and tells it like it is. I admire that, though it may put me in the fence post category.
I'll stick with Ann and Sobran.
"Twiggy with Tourette's" is a kinda funny.
