Burn Him! Burn Him, I Say!

There are lots of people on Oprah's message boards who, like James Frey, are filled with The Fury. It never fails to amaze me how people use the Internet to get so worked up about things. Message boards are today's angry villagers with torches. It's a good thing it's virtual because Mr. Frey would be dangling from the tallest tree right about now.

It also reminds me of the deeply philosophical lesson I learned from Men In Black: "“A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."
