  36. Actually I was going to warlord this one a week or two ago, when it
  37. first appeared, but I had something of a moral dilemma over it.  You
  38. see the problem is that despite its being completely lacking in taste,
  39. discretion, style, grace and all those other qualities, I actually
  40. quite like it.   I'm sorry.  I'm so, so sorry.
