But Shackleford, who amazingly runs a site called Wizard of Vegas and DID NOT KNOW when the 50th anniversary of Fear and Loathing kicked off, decided he knew what my post was about.

He should have apologized for whiffing on a famous event and having me do a (pretty obvious) homage. Instead he decided to defend MDawg. It was asinine, and tells you where his head his.

And piling on about this -- MDawg IS AS BIG A FEAR AND LOATHING FAN as I am, so MDawg knew it was an homage on the 50th anniversary, but Shackleford was too brain dead to realize it.

Mission, you would do well to get Shackleford a library card. Might do him a world of good.
What's Fear and Loathing? It's fifty years old? Yeah, I pretty much automatically don't care, but you can tell me anyway.

It was an event? I thought it was a movie. I could Google it, but then I'd have to type it twice.
