My reply:
That’s pretty comical, Phill, in light of the fact that the National Post steals article ideas from me and other bloggers pretty much every day.
But the photo has been deleted.
I knew something like this would happened if I broke my vow to never link to you people one more time.
Sorry for sending you all that traffic, then.
Believe me, it won’t happen again.
