In the Dec 7 issue of TV Guide, GK has a short, 2 page story entitled: "Get Ready for Monday Night Mudwrestling - Plus Dan Rather and his Orchestra". It about "Once the author finalizes his 'buyout' of CBS, he'll probably introduce a series co-starring a bird and a cat - plus other delights for viewers." It's sort of a cute piece but I think some editor got their mitts all over it. It doesn't feel like GK, talking style or writing style. I wouldn't buy the issue just for the story. Read it in the store. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Cooper Resource Dynamics Inc. {philabs|delftcc}!rdin!coop 150 East 58th Street New York, NY 10155 (212) 486-9150

I think it took him awhile to get into it. About a third of the way through the article, I was able to imagine GK speaking what was written. Maybe he had love on his mind when he started... I don't think he'd let an editor change his stuff too much -- after all, he's a best-selling author! But then again, maybe he was too shy to say anything.
