On that note, however, does Lebanon bear no responsibility for allowing Hezbollah to operate within its borders? While I certainly feel the scope and magnitude of Israel's response is overboard, I'm okay with the idea of a response of some kind. Does Israel need to look at its policies and be more fair to its inhabitants and neighbors? Sure. Does Lebanon need to make sure bands of militia aren't roaming its southern border and shooting rockets into another country? Absolutely.

Easy, killer. Just echoing your buddy Scott. Not looking to start WWV here.

Don't forget the anti-Semitism.

Hezbollah is not a Palestinian organization.

In my imagination, his posts consist of nothing but "Franks and beans!!" over and over.

OMG, it's teh impending WWIV!!!!

WTHAIGTDIC?

I really meant the Steely Dan thing, but sure.

I meant kshun.

I believe it's meant to be taken tongue in cheek.

Yep.

Any sunburn to speak of?

Is it wrong that I knew exactly what I was going to see when I clicked the link?

Jealous.

However, regarding the specific question of how the Jeff-Jay dynamic was presented, Brian Henneman, who knows Jeff and Jay very well, and was there in the midst of things while they were happening, does feel that Kot didn't get it right, and skewed things in Jeff's favor. Not having been there myself, I'm more inclined to believe Brian than someone else who wasn't there - regardless of whether or not he takes Jeff to task for firing Ken Coomer later in the book.

I just really respect that he was able to juggle being in a rock and roll band with his committments to Mr. Show, which apparently caused Jeff to get jealous and make the first "circle has to have a center" firing of his career. Of course, he hired that guy from the Muppet Show, so I think that shows you where Jeff's head was at the time. Did that make it into Kot's book? You bet your ass it didn't. Bias? Oh hell yeah.

Whether Kot calls out Jeff for firing Ken Coomer isn't exactly relevant to what Brian Henneman thinks of the way he presents Jeff's and Jay's relationship in Uncle Tupelo, is it?

I am never going to be able to sleep again.

Sorry to hear it, Kat.

Mike Tyson and Mike Ditka are both known as "Iron Mike."

Nope, pretty much just trying to help El Kevbo make some sense of the comment.

It means Bush is bad and you should get with the program.

Code, schmode. The landlord and I ran a gas line from his kitchen up to ours. Nothing to it.

duh. Yep.
