John has that talent to sculpt a story that walks a razor’s edge between truth and fiction.

I can’t count the times that I read his articles and ‘reacted’ before I realized it was satire. It was just SO DARN BELIEVABLE.

Some say it’s because we want to believe it, but I say it’s because they have made it obvious in their actions.

Heh, he is good at it. Me too.

I got to the point that, before reacting, I would take a quick peek at the author...:)

I hope your ego didn't suffer any damage — apparently that can happen.

Don't be a statist satirist!
