In this crappy-assed economy, there’s one thing you can count on: a fresh and lively new issue of the Weekly each week!
The new issue is here, online and ready for your perusal. Feel free to comment on its contents on this post.
This article appears in Oct 2-8, 2008.
Speaking of spanking, I wonder if you might give John Schuster a little swat for using the obnoxious commercial-broadcasting jargon “news product” in a column in a general-interest weekly. By adopting the enemy’s language, you’re surrendering to his ideology! Now pardon me while I go foment revolution someplace else. Where did I put my beret?
“News product”? Is that like “cheese product”?
In “cheese product” there is no actual cheese. Does that mean in “news product” there is no actual news?
Say it ain’t so, Bo….egle.
It took me all week to figure this out, but your headline on the TW cover is an awesome They Might Be Giants reference. Kudos!
Was there a TMBG reference? I missed it.
“Purple Toupee”?
“They call me Dr. Worm/Good morning, how are you? I’m Dr. Worm/I’m interested in things/I’m not a real doctor but I/Am a real worm, I am an actual worm.”
Dr. Worm, fool! They played this a few years back at City Limits. It was bitchin’.
