Ran into this article on GAN backlog. Found this gem (paraphrasing) "they could not find a job, any job, anywhere, and even considered joining the Foreign Service". Superb! (and I'm deadpan serious about it).
I really wanted to review it for GA (it's been a whole two months) but there's one thing that stops me: I don't understand The Simpsons. I'd rather review something that I've never seen (rather than a run-of-the-mill show of dull characters with deformed faces painted in acid colours... you name it). Oh well. But you'd better split the Simpsons section into something readable - two flat screens of text are hard on anyone's eyes.
Cheers, hope this article makes it to GA, East of Borschov 10:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Please address these matters soon and then leave a note here showing how they have been resolved. After 48 hours the article should be reviewed again.
