Damn. I was going to offer to kick their asses for you, but the tiny plane and/or boat stuff is a deal breaker for me.

Feel free to let me know if anyone within walking distance of my house ever does you wrong. I’m all over it!

Yes, you have to learn copy and paste. It’s a requirement to get out of high school these days, so those of us who might be a little older might need to enroll in a remedial course. It will be worth your while, I assure you.

It was, truth be told, closer to an entire website of original content than one or two articles. Needless to say, tracking down the culprits would have required passports, visas, and, possibly, a trip via a very tiny airplane. And maybe a boat or two. It is an amazing Internet out there…

Whole articles? Jeez. Complete with your byline? Though I’m not sure which is worse — no attribution, or a misapplied quote, documented, sort of.

You mean I have to learn,on top of everything else, how to copy and paste too?
