Alas, there are regions of the country where the natives foolishly
sup****t the horrible local bookstore instead of the well-stocked and
friendly chain bookstore.  Being independent should not be an
insurance policy against the market puni****ng you for your stupidity.

The bookstore I mentioned upthread - that haranged me about Bush from
the end of every row of bookshelves[1], and had not one but two
digital displays counting war dead - is successful enough to have
expanded recently, and I can't for the life of me figure out why.

harangue *more* annoying.
