So how about its alter ego, a hushed room with lots of leather-upholstered wing-backed chairs, tuxedos and decorum, where we graciously discuss the news of the day in white-gloved civility, and where name calling of any sort is considered unforgivably bad form resulting in immediate banishment from the room? Oh, the moderaters would love this one!

This is the internet!!!!! If you want white gloved civility go on a hunt in the Selous with Saeed.



The Vincents have just such a place.

That is until Walter shows up.

Frankly I would love to go on a Buffalo hunt with Saeed, even if Walter was along!
