    "The article presciently stated that although no major in-store promotions were planned, the Web and social media efforts were a bit of a risk in a U.S. marketplace that is often hostile to Islam."

    Wow. Really? Well then, we must be in a nation frothing with Islamophobes and bigots. Someone better buzz outofplace and alert him to this.

    I'm living my fourth Ramadan now and am not even tempted to click the link.

    Is it so hard to actually, you know, comment on something you post, as opposed to just posting a link? Even quoting the nut graph might provide a little insight as to whether it's click-worthy.

    Not picking on Boom, really -- same thought for the White House photo link.

    I vote for quick excerpts as well.

    I always feel like I'm getting a bait & switch when it's just a link.

    My compensation is based on page views. Providing summary will take money out of my pocket.

    Sports Predic Hope your sports prognostications are as predictable
    as your posts. Your handle certainly is apt.

    Again - so predictable. Truly -- you are devoid of original thought.

    You're very good at predicting things after they happen.
