Send 'em to Insider@codeproject.com   View online 10 December 2013 From Daily News Intergalactic Headquarters: Yesterday, Shane had a bit of an outburst in the Daily News, and we apologize. We definitely try to avoid anything like this happening, and I've personally had a talk with Shane to ensure it never happens again. Here at the Daily News, we try to avoid using any Tolkien-based blurbs. Yesterday, Shane crossed that line with a Gollum-inspired quote. We are truly sorry, and we'll endeavour to keep with more appropriate items in the future: snarky comments, famous quotes, song lyrics, and catchy lines from Monty Python, Star Trek, Star Wars, Aliens, and maybe occasionally Doctor Who. Sorry for any confusion. Bob (no, not that Bob) PS: We'll probably keep doing items with "And one ring in darkness to bind them". But that's where we draw the line.
