Clarification

March 9, 2011

Okay, I felt bad about the March 7 post. Even though I was taking a potshot at the media, it might have seemed like I was picking on Charlie Sheen. And I wasn’t—he is a goofball, but he's never picked on me, so I'll leave him alone, too. I was just tired of the excessive coverage, just like I’m tired of hearing what Kate Middleton is wearing, or what she had for breakfast. (Yes, he’s asking for the coverage and she’s not, but it’s excessive either way.)

So I took the post down, turned around to my TV screen—and there was Charlie!

So I said, “What the heck!” and I put it back up.

By the way, I tip my hat to Craig Ferguson, who didn’t have Charlie on his late show on the grounds that it would be exploiting the mentally ill. Nicely done, sir.
