A Classic E-Mail

News: Taylor Lautner Fan Letter To Universal: Your Wolfman Ripped Off Twilight | Latino Review: "The e-mail was from Kayla Patterson, a die hard Twilight/Taylor Lautner fan upset about Universal Pictures ripping off the werewolf idea from Twilight. That's right, Universal Studios, who first put werewolves in theaters, are a bunch of copycats."

This would be funny if it wasn't so sad, or sad if it wasn't so funny. I'm not sure which.

I'm not sure, either, but I have to admit that I laughed.

Yeah, sure. "cuz hes a REAL WEREWOLVE!" Oh my. I'm afraid this is the level if intellect we can all expect to see in the new electronically enlightened age of tweets and "smart" phones. Or is that "pones"?

Actual exchange with 8th grade student just before the movie "Twilight" was released:

Student: "I know I have to be prepared for the movie to be different from the book; not as good."

Me: "Yes, I remember the first time I saw 'Gone with the Wind.' I was so unhappy because it changed so much of the book."

Student: "'Gone with the Wind' is a book?"

Ah, youth.

Her ignorance is exceeded only by her arrogance and rudeness. A real winner. Perhaps in a decade or so she'll have calmed down and read a book or two.

I am getting crotchety.
