Even though they’re San Franciscans, I honestly do see where the proponents of this measure have a point. Regardless of religious parents consenting to knives or scissors going where they normally shouldn’t, not having a say in how one’s junk grows up might bother some guys more than others.

This show with host Jim McKay (and over the years Curt Gowdy, Jim Lampley, Chrish Shenkel, Bob Beattie, Jackie Stewart, etc., etc.) was a formative experience in my childhood — before ESPN began slowly killing the “thrill of victory” and “the agony [...]

The entire article is here, read it! http://www.economist.com/blogs/bagehot/2011/04/british_monarchy
