Out of curiosity, how many people got “The Kinkade Code” joke from my last editorial? One reader mentioned it was pretty funny after taking about eight seconds to figure, and, honestly I don’t think I would have gotten it myself (but it was really clever).
The Happy Dance committee should soon have a Happy Dance FAQ out to answer your happy dance questions.
My cousin Jimmy sent me a link to this hilarious parody Fellowship 911. See Michael Moore and Grima Wormtongue expose the truth behind the war during the Lord of the Rings.

I got it. I think. Like the Da Vinci code, only Thomas Kinkade, right?
And I’d like to point out that I’m far too sophisticated to make a big deal out of being first.
If Lars is right, I got it too. I thought it was funny. I guess if DaVinci was crazy enough to hide deep meaning with the letter “V” (or at least if Brown was crazy enough to imagine it) Kinkade could be doing the same with the letter “N” 🙂
Thanks, Lars. Just for that, I’ll put up a review of your book when I finish it (I’m so horrible at setting aside time to read that I’m going through it at about a chapter a month despite how much I love the story).
Went right by me. Still don’t get it. Who’s Kincade? The manager of the Partridge Family band right? Surely it’s not a Partridge family reference. Frank’s to young to have watched those guys. Of course Susan Day was my #1hooch back in the day.
I’m bored with your flip-waffling on the happy dance, not to mention your teasers about a new limey e-mail.
You flip-waffle more than Kerry on the campaing trail. Deliver or just shut up!
Since I have not (yet) read (or even read a review or a precis of) The DaVinci Code, and since I consider Thomas Kinkade’s works to be cool enough to look at (somewhat critically) on the walls of retail pop-art showrooms, but not cool enough to actually purchase…I guess I still don’t get it –
Then again, I don’t really care, either…
FrankJ, you waffleflopper, it’s curtains (or maybe drapes or even mini-blinds) for you, unless you come up with that Happy Dance stuff you keep talking about, but failing to actually deliver.
Come across, or we put your name and description at the top of Buck The Marine’s list of Furriners That Need Kill’n.
Also, we’ll tell Rumsfeld that you’ve been going around telling everyone what a girlie-man he is.
I should note, as the “one reader” mentioned, that I absolutely loathe Kinkade and his “art”. Everything about it offends me.
What makes it even more unbearable is that I have a sister-in-law who loves the dreck. So much so, that she even has the collector’s plates, and, so help me God, Kinkade wallpaper. You read that right. Two words that should never appear together: Kinkade. Wallpaper.
I’m absolutely sure that’s the decor in Hell.
Ugh. Yes, I got it. Kincade is a very odd guy.
The “Christian Painter Of Light.”
He is a talented painter but is highlt formulaic and lacks any type of edge or creativity.
He wants to make money, that’s all. The funny thing is that the artists that hate him almost all suck themselves, LOL!
At the very least, he knows how to paint. For the record, I loathe his art as well.
I feel sorry for you Alan S.

i thought it was hilarious and got it right away.

I got it, I always read the italics before the editorial
Hell, I STILL don’t get it. lol
Thanks Frank. With fans like you I’m sure to remain deservedly obscure for the foreseeable future… 😉
Assuming the above explainations are right, I got it, too, and I giggled mightily. Very clever, indeed.
YAY! I just got it.
!

Sticky, Thomas Kinkade is an artist of sentimental, impressionistic paintings that are currently very popular with people whose taste I mistrust.
I got it… my Grandmother is a big Thomas Kinkade fan.
And her taste is… uh… curious.
Frank, all this ‘code’ stuff is nice and dandy, but if you don’t give us the Happy Dance soon, we’ll have to take you on a drive like this.
I got it, my parents are kinkade fans, so I knew what you were talkin about, it was pretty funny

I thought it was hilarious,
I’m just sad I didnt think of it first.
Dam you,
Shakes Fist
I m so not first.
shakes fist again
frank flip-waffles more then kerry and dead/not-dead arafat together… for shame
I got it immediately, and it didn’t occur to me that other people might not get it. Huh, shows what I know.
Oh. Now I get it.

shemale, you’re off-topic again.
