Wedding Announcement

[pms]

I've told this story bunches on this list(in different contexts, usually my
limited experience with The Left) and assumed that the no comment just meant
no one believed me.  Anyway,  back when CounterPunch went to that logo about
Babylon I was rather drunk one night as I was getting my sub renewal
together(before I was on the internet or had managed to express myself some,
while sober) and I wrote a note on the renewal form saying something like
the Babylon thing just making the mag less credible out here in The Rube
Gallery(this is pre-RG and I don't remember how I put it but you know how I
feel about needlessly alienating regular people and handing free hammers to
the likes of Limbaugh and stuff) and I said that I liked CounterPunch cause
it told the facts and named the names instead of a bunch of ideology.  Soon
after that CounterPunch started using just such a logo(or whatever you call
it).  As I recall I didn't do anything till the next renewal when I
wrote(probably drunk) that I thought they should at least give me a free
sub.  Never heard back.  Never renewed.
