Fox News say: A Web site called Postapoo.com is urging Scots to send plastic poo to the Englishmen they hate on April 23, St. George's Day (England's national holiday), Sky News reports.

This stinks of nationalism and poor reporting gone mad. The Scots hate the English, and...? So what, we all know that, but Fox News and Sky don't.

Also, it sounds kind of funny, the idea that big brawny Braveheart Scotsmen and women would reduce themselves to scooping plastic feces into an envelope to get back at an Englishman on St George's Day.

Why don't they deliver the poo in person? Helloooo, I come bearing gifts, ye sassenach bastard. Answer, because such demeaning behavior would reflect badly on them, and detract from their argument that they are responsible enough to run their own affairs without any help.

Nationalism is a stinky business.
