"With most relationships," Post blogger reckless G says of "Con Games," "after awhile a comfortable familiarity takes the place of frequent hot sex and if you're lucky, friendship replaces lust."
Wharf Rat returns doing what he does best--criticizing Michael Conniff--with a spoof appropriately called "Comm Games." "Voice of David von Beethoven: 'the opinions expressed on Comm Games are in no way, shape or form attributable to NRC Broadcasting," he blogs, "although those of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Jim Rome and Dr. Laura presumably are. If you find yourself dumbfounded by the things the Comm Man says, give him a call! ...ba dum buh dum...Hello again everybody and welcome back to Comm Games--I'm Michael Conniff...ba dum buh dum...the Editor of Aspen Post and your host right here in the triangle of gold--120,000 people within the sound of my voice at a pitch heard primarily by Pat from Aspen and Jimmy Ibbotson."
Paige Price of Theatre Aspen visits the Con Man to tell about the premier of "Crimes of the Heart" under the tent in Rio Grande Part, and to say what she learned in her first year as artistic director. Then Barry Schochet weighs in on what he sees as the sanguine effects of the Iraq war.
Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, and all the ships sea. Now hear this "Con Games with Michael Conniff" is now available on the Internet on Aspen Post 24/7.... or, as we used to call it, "around the clock." If you missed all or part of the show--or if you are exiled to your first home in a distant land--you now have a way to keep up with the cognoscenti as said Con Man continues into his fifth year in April 2008 "with liberty and justice for all."
Move over, Rush. Foggedaboudit Hannity. There's a new boss in town.
