  • awilensky  You've made it! When people parody, it means you broke through. I mean, the twins were big news (and they should grow up, be healthy, and wise, and etc.) but this is big. You should be feeling lucky!

  • awilensky  Who's the Irish guy that founded it with Mike Arrogant? Teare, yeah, Kieth Teare. Did you ever read JP Donleavey? That guy Teare was like a character tight out of, "The Destiny of Darcy Dancer, Gentleman". A real Irish rogue. Ooops, another racial gaffe.

  • awilensky  Critiquing Feldman's parody takes a kind of subtlety that is in short supply. I watched it - typical Feldman. I knew he would catch shit for it. I never in my wildest dreams that you, Rizz, would catch hell for the analysis. He is a really bright guy, and, like Lenny Bruce, he was want to push the envelope. Back in the day, that envelope got stretched in every which direction. Today, you can't even open it. A guy at the FT R&D lab where i was on contract used to complain about the, 'stupid Indians running the place" - I reminded him that we were Jewish and wouldn't take too kindly to the Indian guys saying, "Who do these Jewboys think they are, smarter than us". It all got said, until I broke the ice with all of us present; I said to the Indian guys, "Do you really think that you Indian guys are smarter than the Jews? Come on." Mind you, they have a great, dry sense of humor. My boss said, "Yeah...but if we all worked together, the Indians and the Jews, we could take over the world".
