We're just saying that...

We know that what we are about to write is sort of maybe grandiose and even base. And we're not making any specific kind of accusation here, or even trying to insinuate anything. But there we were reading the current issue of the The New Yorker when we came across this humor piece titled Bad Dog by Larry Doyle in the Shouts and Murmurs section. As we read it, it frankly seemed kind of familiar to us. In fact, it reminded of us a humor piece that TBWCYL, Inc. spokesperson Ben Tanzer published in THE2NDHAND some time ago. That piece was titled Daddy Dreariest, and while again, we're not trying to imply that we think, you know, that this is anything more than the most random of coincidences, we're just saying that...well, we're just kind of wondering what you think.
