Letter to the Editor
Campus Times
November 14, 1997
Dear Editor,
It was a painful experience for me to read the staff editorial, "ASF's fire burned out" [Nov. 7],
not because several points in the article were unsubstantiated or because
of its sensational nature, but rather I was disturbed by a very weak attempt
at humor. To quote: "The bonfire definitely did not Come to a Theatre
Near You." Let me remind the Campus Times staff that this is
ULV and not the Improv. This pathetic attempt at comedy was neither inventive
or humorous. So, to fight fire with fire, or more appropriately, to fight
bad humor with bad humor, I would like to offer this reminder to the Campus
Times staff: The only person "disturbed" by the absence of
the bonfire during Homecoming Week was the person in charge of disposing
of all the leftover Campus Times issues. I sincerely apologize to
that person for canceling a traditional, albeit traditionally bad, Homecoming
event.
