It's called all sorts of things, not nice. There IS a good reason for not typing in Joe Bob. It's called boredom. When I first read him, I thought he was a real asshole, a typical redneck. Then I realized that he wasn't really that bad, that he was just like a little kid who wants to show you how many days in a row he can wear the same old dirty underwear; just a sort of tasteless person who doesn't realize how silly he is. After that, his reviews have seemed just plain dull. Oh, I realize some people think he's satirical, but you can't make fun of the same old things in the same old ways over and over again and expect it to remain fresh. No, if Joe Bob were really satirical, his articles would not have become so monotonous. So, please don't put him on. Bert Lo lo@harvard.ARPA
