In the end I just looked at Willies as a Humorous travelogue. Any =
seroius information about his recation to playing with MO was part of =
another book that might never get written (Well - that is how I looked =
at it).=20
And as a travelogue the tourist is not going to see what the locals see =
in a place. If I were to travel to the industrial heart of the UK for a =
working weekend I am not sure if I would write positive things about it. =
People would say "How could you write what you did about Birmingham! - =
You are an ignorant Boob!" - and they would be right! (Birmingham was =
used only as an example - I have never actually been to the UK - so I =
really AM an ignorant boob about this)=20
It was kind of intersting to read his travel experiences, and I DID =
enjoy his sense of humor. I suppose I enjoyed the book mostly because of =
his off the wall comparisons, pop culture references.
Perhaps he will try his hand at more serious writting next time - but =
Pete can do that that . HMMM Maybe Rob needs to write a pure humor book. =
Can he draw? Maybe he has a future as a cartoonist.
