You mean something like "Don't come around here no more...."?Flash said:And I anxiously await a lame shot at Canadians by Tom Petty. Fire away, Mr. Funny.

dwyane wade has been too good to just walk away from this series cold turkey. couldn't bring myself to do it. feel like i'm watching michael jordan all over again.
oh well, i guess it's clear just how full of shirt you are. like we all thought you'd actually go back to kc and address one of the biggest stories to take place in that city this year when you could eat by the handful at the buffet table and fill your overflowing ego by being at the finals. somehow, i knew just how full of shirt you were when you suggested you'd leave the finals and take care of biz in your own back yard.
hey tubby, did you request dane at the buffet table, and, was it comforting to suckle at shaq's teet?
I can't decide whether I like this Tom Petty guy or hate him.

And your powers of observation are just stunning ... Flash is a woman, not a dude. But feel free to kick her even further on a day when her paper cut her job....Tom Petty said:Flash said:And I anxiously await a lame shot at Canadians by Tom Petty. Fire away, Mr. Funny.
dude, you took care of all the funny that was needed for one day on your last post when you referred to yourself as a journalist.
Alma said:whitlock,
I don't think you're racist. Or sexist. I don't think that would be possible for me to know, since I think you're a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Such is the lot of a hypocrite. Talent, no talent, it is all in aid of smoke you exhale to muddle the air of discussion. You are the equivalent of the Cosmo stories 26-year-old staffers write about fictional people saying fictional things about sex, work, life, death - you work off a false premise (that you're sincere) often to argue false premises. Your work is useful in the way it can be manipulated - hence my earlier post - in aid of a cause that, in an undetermined period from now, you will align yourself against. Another analogy: Your work is that which college debators could reasonably quote on the affirmative and negative sides, sometimes in the same column.
It works as gadfly journalism, and, on certain occasions, your work is so terrifically selfish and phony that it achieves a kind of grandeur. I don't question your influence or pull - I know you have it - nor do I deny the balsa wood that undergirds it. I can only say it appeals to the ugliest kind of intellectualism, that it is not affirming, but distracting, and whatever movement your work creates swirls more destructive forces than creative ones. It's base, not truth. Period. As so are so many of your posts here.

The fat jokes are tiresome and the fact that two radio shrills got their credentials revoked is intersting/newsy to journalists but is hardly "one of the biggest stories to take place in that city this year."
But at least you have a fan in DyePack.
