It used to be "In the PI"

I was reading old posts and came across a prohetic statement I made.

Where I wrote the following on March 17, 2006

"Now I can understand the PI editorial board feeling a little betrayed by the democratic process, I mean, we’ve elected President Bush twice, we clearly can’t be trusted to make decisions on our own behalf. Seeing as how today is St. Patrick’s day, a toast to the PI seems appropriate, but I think I’ll put my bottle on the self and save the toast for the day the PI puts their last drop of ink on a page and closes shop forever."

I'm happy to report that a mere three years later, the PI did indeed put that last drop of ink on a page as they printed their last issue.

The PI laments the change in advertising that caused thier demise, I point out once again the root cause was their far to left leaning slant, you can't sell a "Newspaper" when it's filled with opinion and adgenda masquarading as "news"
