     How about them Cubbies?
     I guess the holiday jitters are in all of us.  Just to show you, some
cretin, namely, me, is up at 11:30pm, the night before he drives up to Chicago
at 6am.  I've got the ninth wave going, and I _still_ have an awake sense of
humor!
     Was this as serious as it seems?  I can't for the life of me figure that
anyone in this group would slight female artists over male.  Kate fits pretty
well into the same argument, and Richard and Ken are both Kate fans.  Sexism
exists, but conjuring it up where it doesn't exist (IMO) is just as bad.
     No edge intended, I'm just confused.  I didn't see much of the original
articles by Richard or Ken, so I may be sticking my mouth in my foot.
