Man I was so excited to see this headline:
Tourists to Scotland ‘let down by quality of food’
The piece just writes itself:
If you don't like Scottish food, do as us Scots do and just drink all day.
Going to Scotland for the food is like going to France for military training.
Haggis: it's nae sa bad!
But sadly, the actual piece is just quoting a bloviating blowhard Scotsman complaining that not enough people eat in his restaurant at Gleneagles, which is actually about the most Non-Scottish place in all of Scotland. There's no data given that tourists complain about food quality.
The closest thing in the whole story is this:
Recent research found half of people visiting Scotland want to try local food while two-thirds think quality food is an important factor when deciding where to go on holiday.
So to Andrew Fairlie I say, "away wi ye now, ya daft wee cuntie". And to all prospective visitors to Scotland I say go for the hiking, scenery, golf and whisky. By all means, eat if you must. But try to avoid the "local delicacies"

Immigration reform?
Sean Hannity and John Boehner both say they now want to tackle immigration reform.
Cool beans. Welcome to the club lads.
What should this reform look like?
1. an easy path to citizenship for current "illegals"
2. all college diplomas earned by foreigners come with a green card stapled to them
3. a massive (triple? quadruple?) increase in the amount of visas for skilled workers
4. make the process for getting green cards and becoming citizens faster and cheaper
5. a gradually increasing flow of "unskilled" immigrants from around the world
What am I missing? Tell me in the comments.
It would be awesome if a side benefit of Mittens' drubbing was real reform. But, I am not holding my breath.
