I just read your letter at http://www.weeklydig.com (it's the one with "old guy" in the heading)

I think that your letter was printed because you are insightful, funny, and cogent.


Not because the kids who edit it think that you are a cranky-pants whack job who says "fuck" a lot.

I said "fuck" a lot because that's what those kids do throughout the paper.
Kind of like Artie, but not so furry.

They missed the point that I read the news section - that's how I knew to make fun of it - because I read it.
Kind of unlike Artie, who listens to NPR because that's the only station they can get in the Maine woods.
He has to wear his aluminum foil hat to get real good reception.

But at least he's got a valid birth certificate.
The Bronx Zoo is as legitimate as any hospital.

Now on to the Utne Reader, so Artie will see my letter in real life.

Unlike Franks aluminum foil hat, which he wears
to block out the radio waves, radio waves generated
by secret Obama supported radio stations, stations
supported by communist subversives hell bent
on brain washing their listeners into giving up their
civil liberties to the state!

It's the Sarah Palin model, complete with matching
ammo belt, and camo pumps
