Paul Borman raises an interesting question, and it does cause one to
wonder where the priorities of the newspapers are.  Now, as I see it,
if bunches of sticks (faggots) decide to go marching around, that's
\news/!  I can't understand \any/ newspaper that wouldn't put this on
the front page.  As for these sticks having a "Pride Week," well, I
didn't know sticks travelled in prides like lions, but there are some
odd names in English for groups of things.  Or is it that they were
proud of being sticks?  I can't see anything wrong with that; there's
certainly no shame in being a stick.

                   Fascinated by the English language,
