Bill, you must be humor-impaired. That piece was a great send-up of Woods. I was laughing 'til tears spilled down an shorted out my keyboard. I dunno who posted that, but I'm in awe.
Thanks. I know the author rather well, and he assures me he dashed off this satirical piece in about as much time as he takes to write his normal articles. He tells me that once he had "grokked" the inimitable (not) style of Don Wood, it was easy to write a screed that echoed Wood's wackiness. Of course, for people who read satire on this list, the initials at the end are a clue. But don't publish who you think it is, as KVFP doesn't want a lawsuit from Wood for hurting Wood's feelings. --KVFP -- --

That person is not about to get a lawsuit from me about anything. I have more important things to do with my time. I enjoyed it very much myself and had a good laugh too. Please keep it up, you are good at it. Kindest regards, Don Wood

I do not intend to bring any lawsuit about any spoof. I have more important things to do with my time. I enjoyed it too and had some good laughs. Keep it up, it helps us to keep everything in perspective, Kindest regards, Don Wood
