    I had a radio station that was copying and pasting our stories onto its Web site. It did at least credit my paper, but for some reason eliminated the byline. I e-mailed the sports director (or whatever), saying, "if you're going to rip my stories off our Web site, the least you could do is include my byline." That fixed the problem.

    Please excuse my eighth-grade educayshun, but after reading the column several times I'm still confused as to who exactly wrote it, Pils or the sports editor. It reads like Pils did the 3-graf intro then turned it over to the SE. If that's the case, why didn't the SE just put his own name and mug on the thing?

    A little help here, please.

    I could copy and paste that piece and change the call letters and names, and it would sum up my feelings exactly here.

    Of course, that too would be plagiarism. But I would feel a whole heckuva lot better afterward.

    That's just what I was about to comment. I thought the tone of the piece was professional right up until that last paragraph, then he lost it.

    Guess, according to the "contact us" info Pils is the Night Editor.

    Yep. "Larry" "Moe" and "Curly" are more appropriate. And a good "Shemp" is always useful. What the paper should do is run a photo of these clowns in a nice house ad and point out what thieving LAZY scum they are. They have no shame. Politeness doesn't work with them. I say let 'em have it.

    Are you saying that's wrong? Because it's right.

    Are you saying it's much adieu about nothing?

    If you're saying goodbye, I guess.

    I was hoping Maniacal1 was simply calling out the wretched turn of phrase.

    No matter, as long as all involved get their just deserts.

    I bid you Adu, sir.
