De-Vangelism #4 or "And The Flames Come Tumbling Down."

Hello and welcome to another exciting adventure in de-vangelism. As of late, the hits at macopz have gone way up, which is pretty cool. Okay, time for the rant. Gather round, kiddies, this week's rant is called:
Why Michael Munger Should Shut The Hell Up.
Where I come from, there's a man who writes for the newspaper. His name is Chuck Green. Chuck is the kind of guy who writes articles like "They stopped caring about little JonBenet." or "highways are not fun." He's sort of like a melodramatic Andy Rooney. Writers like Chuck can be found in almost any newspaper or magazine in the country. Well, now us Mac users have one too, his name is Michael Munger.
Yes, Michael Munger, the man who writes such worthwhile things as "software developers are back, so what?" and "What The Heck Is Wrong With The Web?" Don't get me wrong here, I used to hang with Michael on the old Platform Discussion board, and I respect what he was able to do at MacSoldiers. However, his column at MacObserver sucks.
The ideals of content held by Munger are pretty damn boring. He criticizes a column for using "the F-word." Well, bend me the fuck over and fuck me up the fucking ass; I didn't think spare-time columnists who to an audience of about 200 people had to worry about being "family friendly." He also blasts software developers, asking them "where were you in 1997?"
They were all right there. I haven't seen a company that's making money off Mac stuff that hasn't been at it since the beige days. Most of them just didn't hit the big time until recently.
Parting Shot: How can a guy whine about the integrity of the Mac web when his column often debuts right under "Wasting Time With The Idiots?"

Spacedog's Sack: Okay, this week's letter comes to us from spambot450@hotnakedchicks.com: Are you tired of porn sites that advertise free pics, then give you nothing but ads? Wanna cut through all the bullshit? Them cum to our site! We offer only the highest quality pictures of fat chicks and goats!
umm, okay, I think I printed the wrong message. (note to editor: Please do not display this. Delete it now. It would be very embarrassing if this got out. Seriously. Delete it. Please?)

The Crimson Shovel: Still Don't Have the Shovel Movie? Get it here
Well, this week's shovel goes to MacAddict. "But why give the Crimson Shovel to such a kickass magazine?" you ask. Well, mainly because I received the December issue two weeks after the January issue, and until Kris Fong shows up at my door with a written apology and a bag of fish tacos, MacAddict gets the shovel. CLANG!

Well, that's all for this week. As always, I really want your Feedback.
