Re: [Paddlewise] PaddleWise V1 #1442

I'm glad you amply got that off of your chest, Beverly. 
You go girl!  But don't just preach to the choir.  You need
to be writing to the callous suits at Showtime; the
unenlightened Chris Isaak himself c/o Showtime; and the
dim-witted editors at GQ magazine for publishing these
outrages.  A pre-emptive copy to your congressional
representative might not be a bad idea either.

Plese excuse me for omitting GQ's address in my original
post.  It's:

Gentlemen's Quarterly            Phone:   800 289-9330     
Box 53816                        Website: www.gq.com
Boulder, Colorado 80322

What REALLY gets ME,... but you didn't even comment on
it... was how GQ ignored the obviously out of place red
gear bag.  They'll be hearing from me!  Don't let them get
away with it!

If you, (or anyone,) would like a copy of the whole
interview, let me know.  I'll scan it and send the piece of
toilet paper to you.

I'm not going to take this kind of shoddy journalism
anymore.  I am not renewing my subscription!
