People are always using junk science to “prove” things like global warming, holes in the ozone, gravity, and that I’m actually Ted Rall. The latter is the worst of these, and even uses a phoney document to try and prove its point. If you look carefully at the typeface and spacing on that supposed memo, it’s obvious it doesn’t match up to any typewriter available in the late seventies. You’ll have to get the original mrmo and compare it to a New Courier document written in Word to see how it really came about.
Also, I wasn’t born until months after the memo is dated, but font analysis is more interesting.
First!!
Why is everyone so excited to be first?
lol..
Arrrgggghhhh! I e-maild this to you and have been checking your site every few minutes just to be first when you responded. I had to stop looking at IMAO to do some WORK, and you post! *@#$%(#!
Third!
people shouldn’t even type comments, just type in your score on the attractive scale.
10!
That’s weird. I thought you were actually Atrios.
Pfft. Whatever Ted. We’d all known it was you all along. Couldn’t you come with a better psudeonymn then Frank J.? That’s downright uncreative, and just goes to show that you really didn’t put any effort into this farse.
I’ll give it a B-, and that’s being generous.
Beo, you’re really mean! What did Frank do to you?
You mean Frank J. is really Tony Randall.
Oscar, Oscar, Oscar.
Michele sent me [/not]
Uh, what was that thing LBJ said ’bout if ya say somethin’ bad ’bout someone and they deny it, that automatically makes it true.
You are so busted Ted Rall … I mean Frank J.
NYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGH!
AHA, silly little man! I’ve got the goods on you this time. I dispute your claims of Word and Courier nonsense. That document was faxed from RELIABLE sources. Prove you’re not Ted Rall. Disclose your medical records …..
Oh, my! I think I’m gonna have a stroke. I’m so excited. I see Edward R. Murrow’s ghost. He is talking to me ….
Yes, Mr. Murrow. I understand. I will take my medication now. Thank you.
Goodnight, all. This is Dan Rather for CBS News.
10.
Aw get real people. Frankj draws much better than Rall!
So what do we call him now, Trank or Fed?
Naw. Frank can’t be Ted Rall. Ted Rall’s waaay cutergets silly grin and RUNS LIKE HELL!!!
Well, official cheeseandbacon reporting on Frank-gate here:

Oh, please. It’s a completely different childish style.
p.s. He compared you to a NINJA, Frank! Is that going to go on unpunished? I mean, calling you Rall is one thing, but a ninja… That crosses the line.
As long as it appears true, it is true. Ted…

I’m having a bad hair day…
Every day… :/
hey, everyone. sarahk here. just wanted to say that there’s no way in hell or on earth that Frank is ted rall. Frank is smart, waaaay cute, and has these lusciously kissable lips. i wouldn’t kiss ted rall to save him from death.
Silly Dr. Frodo. Strangely enough, the article doesn’t say how long he lived. I’m guessing about 15 minutes after writing the memo, surprised by a ninja and a monkey. Being prepared is essential for survival, folks!
OK SaraK, way too much info.
I’m going to have to scrub that visual out of my brain … If I go to the democrat underground website I will instantly loose the ability to process information. Memory will disolve. Only parroted lines about blood and oil will remain.
