About

Dr. Lucien Sanchez: Have you ever been to Scotland Dag?

Dr. Rick Dagless: Once.

Dr. Lucien Sanchez: What was it like?

Dr. Rick Dagless: I remember it much as one recalls a dream... or a nightmare. I was on a budget flight to Norway, when a storm hit and forced us to ditch in Glasgow Prestwick. I was stranded, and it's so hilly up there you can't get any signal on your car phone. It looked bad...it looked like I was going to have to spend the night in Glasgow.

Dr. Lucien Sanchez: Jesus Christ.

Dr. Rick Dagless: The cabin crew suggested we all go out and club it. I had no option, it was that or one of their B&Bs. I figured it'd be safer on the streets. For the first time ever I saw the Scotch in their natural habitat...and it weren't pretty. I had seen them huddling in stations before being loud, but this time, I was surrounded. Everywhere I went it felt like they were watching me...fish-white flesh puckered by the highland breeze, tight eyes peering out for fresh meat. Screechy, booze-soaked voices hollering out for a taxi to take them halfway up the road to the next all-night watering hole. A shatter of glass. A round of applause. A sixteen year old mother of three vomiting in an open sewer; bairns looking on, chewing on potato cakes. I ain't never going back. Not never.

Dr. Lucien Sanchez: My aunt lives in Scotland, she says it's quite nice.

Dr. Rick Dagless: Well she's wrong
