Yo–Wyman is absolutely correct about the new revised Jones & the Rolling Stones which sucketh mightily as evidenced by DooDoo Lounge [Rock Etc., September 23]. I have E-mailed my opinion thereof to the Keefstone at Stones@delphi.com (as printed in Esquire) and indeed with copy the keefness thereat–can’t wait till I figure out how to do a website–Wyman is pretty smarmy however about the Tribune’s naivete on the Infobahn [Hitsville, December 23]–hey–well at least they’re on it–what’s your avatar Wyman–it is not hip to make fun of newbies–in fact, what’s the Reader’s Infobahn address–I think City Hall should make its presence felt on AOL in the Windy City Chat Room, in fact why doesn’t the Reader & NewCity hold a weekly salon–maybe a salon held for 2 hours on Sunday evening–a real development of a news conference–like Jagger was on AOL’s Center Stage–the Stones may be old, but they aren’t newbies–if anyone out there wants to hire a bottled in bond cyberdude who’s old enough to be a grandfather, check out Octagon Consultants in St. Thomas–its principal, a piratical type, works the Caribbean market on a UN passport setting up systems at small consulates–he’s been on the Net for a good 10 years, probably longer–I ran away with him when I was a kid–we hitchhiked to NY from Niagara Falls instead of seeing Hiroshima, mon amour in Buffalo because there was TOO MUCH SNOW to get to Buffalo. (Not like Christmas Day in balmy Chicago.) That was on Ted Kennedy’s 29th birthday–a Jupiter/Saturn conjunction–Tecumseh’s Curse 1961. I spent Bay of Pigs with Peter having convinced my mother that I HAD to go to NY after that little escapade–I learnt to sing “Deutschland Uber Alles” that Easter and I hadn’t even graduated from high school yet–which is why we were the brightest & the best.
