OK, it's a 101 course right here.
But is it History 101 or Stand-Up Comedy 101?
Or are we really talking about Stand-Up Tragedy?
Or Disinformation 401?
Writing only for myself, I have zero patience for neophytes and the half-witty. Especially when agents provocateur frequently introduce themselves by playing just those roles.
As I've said to so many self-focused, would-be jazz players who come unprepared to jam sessions: Practice at home, not on the bandstand.
When you can play "Cherokee" up and in at least four keys, come play here.
Until then, woodshed elsewhere.
Clear?

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
