I'm shocked... But, in my shock, I've come up with a nifty idea. You see, I was planning on going to California on vacation next month, and spending a day or two in Fresno! 2 reasons, really: To meet JimRob, and to see Harvey Korman and Tim Conway do a show!

Well, I emailed the following to Mayor Autry of Fresno...



Dear Mayor Autry,

My name is MarkL, and I was planning to be vacationing in California this October. As a long time fan of the Carol Burnett Show, I was looking forward to seeing Tim Conway and Harvey Korman while I was in Fresno for a few days.

Imagine my suprise when I found out according to your "Human Relations Commission," I'm a member of a "hate group." Obviously, you wouldn't want someone like me in your town. I wasn't going to spend my entire vacation in Fresno, just two days, but I've decided that I will use that time elsewhere. It's a shame, really: Tim and Harvey are terrific alone, but together they are far greater comic actors. It's a shame I'm going to miss it.

I don't know if I want to wait until May of 2004 to see them in Branson, MO, so I may just delay my vacation altogether until this January, and see them in Las Vegas.

On the other hand, the money I'll be saving can be used for something else. If Jim Robinson decided to sue the city for defamation, I'll be sure to use the money I saved as a donation to the legal fees.

Sincerely,

MarkL




Who knows... Maybe this sort of publicity will get a public apology out of the city....

NAHHH... Being a DEMONrat means never having to say you're sorry!

Mark

Mayor Autry is on our side, no sense throttling him at this point.
