The dino in the toilet is a more accurate reflection of this story.

I'm slow. It took me a full ten seconds to start laughing out loud.

It's only because they haven't banned the nuts yet.

If they banned the nuts, Doug, they'd have to start with the Boss, and add much of the editorial staff and a majority of their columnists. They'd be left with only their (continually shrinking) advertisement section.

I don't think it's their cafiteria that's the problem, they probably read their own news paper, and got sick

I can't stop laughing long enough at the analysis by john, Doug, Dave in Pa and GYM to comment.

Hope some of the CBC, Red Star and Globe staff catch the same illness.

Dear (redacted)

I have been spewing shit on the news and editorial pages for some years now, and therefore thought I should report my chronic illness to you.

Do you suggest I see a general practitioner or a psychiatrist? Is our medical plan still in effect or has congress taken it over?

I wonder how fecal matter contaminating food could have possibly affected the NYT's cafeteria? It's a mystery.

Maybe they were wrapping their food in the NYT? That would explain any "crap" in it.
Memo to self...do not line bird cage with NYT anymore.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
