Yah, I KNOW I shouldn't get into this, but...

In analysis of Micheal Weiss's little contribution to the arts (not Ken's),
the reason I thought this was a reasonably stupid article was that it didn't
work on any level.  If  M. Weiss was serious, well, then he's just another
schmuck, one of millions.  If he's trying to get do satire and get a rise
out of people, sorry, but it just don't play in Peoria (i.e. it ain't funny,
son).  If he was trying to emulate Ken, well, one can understand his
youthful exuberance, but he should re-read the original article -- it dealt
with Ken's Second City methods of self-defense and was, of course, written
well.  Can't blame you for imitating a master, just for doing it badly.

Well, that's all for this week.  Next week, In my X-Ray segment, I explain
why all net.religion posters should be burned at the stake.
