Where did you hear overdose?

It's a real neat party trick, and I think that it should absolutely qualify as fair use, but it's more of an audio crossword puzzle than genuine composition -- probably harder in it's own way, but less satisfying in the long term. Crossword puzzles are great, but they also ain't Huck Finn. And remember, even when he's right, Andrew Sullivan is always full of shit. "I'm not tempted to write a song about George W. Bush. I couldn't figure out what sort of song I would write. That's the problem: I don't want to satirize George Bush and his puppeteers, I want to vaporize them." -- Tom Lehrer "The eyes are the groin of the head." -- Dwight Schrute ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 27 Jul 2008 07:28:46 -0500 From: Steve Schiavo Subject: Re: Music Of The Millennials (NR) On Jul 27, 2008, at 2:51 AM, Jeff Dwarf wrote: > And remember, even when he's right, Andrew Sullivan is always full > of shit. Best I can remember, Andrew was editor of The New Republic when I first started reading it, so I cut him some slack. But he's on vacation from his blog, and the mash-ups article is by one of his young stand-ins. Besides, Andrew's favorite band is The Petshop Boys. This set me off because it's the second time mash-ups have come up on one of my regular haunts - ____________________________________________________ >> >> >> "Music Of The Millennials" >> >> Take a look at the entry with the above title, and listen to the >> "truly brilliant" composition in the video and tell me who's more >> full of shit - this guy, or me for thinking he's an> idiot. > > It's a real neat party trick, and I think that it should absolutely > qualify as fair use, but it's more of an audio crossword puzzle > than genuine composition -- probably harder in it's own way, but > less satisfying in the long term.

When they "so bravely (as he continues to claim to this day)" printed excerpts from _The Bell Curve._ Which is not to say that he isn't a bright guy or frequently entertaining. > But he's on > vacation from his blog, and the mash-ups article is by one of his > young stand-ins.
