Whilst traipsing about Europe with a copy of "Brideshead Revisited" (by Evelyn Waugh whom I consider to be the greatest writer of the century even though I can't understand this book) in hand, I have deigned to lower myself to deliver political commentary to you barbaric tradionalist conservatives on the Free Republic.
Because I do not wish to sully my hands on a key board as I perform my Thomas J. Watson fellowship studies, I am channeling my answers to your political questions via PJ-Comix. Perhaps this shall become a regular feature on your traditionalist conservative forum. So feel free to ask, with great humilty, your questions of watsonfellow, a recent graduate of Claremont McKenna College in Claremont, California and a proud holder of a double PPEE (Pomposity, Punditry, Excess, & Egocentricity) degree aka a PPEE-PPEE.
And please keep my personal motto in mind: Good form isn't just something, it is EVERYTHING.
Please convey to watsonfellow to dry behind his ears.
I confused...
I did not SUPPORT the booing. However, I greatly appreciated it! :D
But PJ my dear, what should the gracious Mr. Bush call Mr. Bin Laden and his chums? Banes of civilization?
As you can see I am blaming this on the cur who is channeling the genius that is me. My infallibility is nearly total, even when I just wake up in the morning to the sound of my alarm clock emitting Gregorian Chants in the original Latin.
Wogs, BC, bloody wogs.
Pray tell, what is a tradionalist?
I just have to say O'Rourke. Quit monkeying around in Europe and acting the gadfly on FR. Finish your book.--Signed
Your Editor
PJ is but a mere channeling receptacle. Please address your questions to the all-knowing watsonfellow. I would think that President Bush should call Mr. Bin Laden and his chums "cads" but even that is a bit on the harsh side. Besides it is also in terribly bad form.
(Snort!)
Bet that's a real hit with the ladies; or do I give you too much credit, my dear Watsonfella?
It is a "traditionalist" when typed by an overcaffeinated channeler who is too hyped up to have correctly channeled it as "populist" in the first place. But do not worry, I shall have my man servant thoroughly thrash this inept channeler at the first available opportunity.
He used to knell down and mutter Ora pro nobis ad nauseum (a little Latin there to impress those Claremontians)
BTW, I used to work and live in Europe but I don't remember doing any traipsing!
Agreed. A much more appropriate title for those guilty of misdeeds. And much less offensive to the sensitive ears of the 'traditional conservatives' such as Sir PJ. (I hear he is up for knighthood, you know.)
I'll have you know that I am quite the Ladies Man. Oh how they swoon when I read them quotes from "Brideshead Revisted," especially that part when two young Thomas J. Watson fellows traipsed to the roof of a castle and roasted their buns together in the sun.
"Who is watsonfellow, and why is my photograph on his page?"
Pardon me? Would that be the same century in which Richard Brautigan lived? Give it some thought while you're trout fishing in Europe...

That crude channeler, PJ, is not up for knighthood. You have confused him with the Philosopher King who is I. Because of my recent Knighthood and my double PPEE degree, you may now call me Sir PPEE-PPEE.
Is that kneel down?
That is because you never visited the Traipsist Monks. I learned the fine art of Traipsing from those monks while teaching them Latin.
