Good grief
The people who accused me of an unfunny April fool's joke have come up with...you won't believe it...a spoof Guardian site. And guess what they've done -- they called it the Grauniad! For readers abroad, that's a hilarious joke based on the Guardian's reputation (before 1988, admittedly) for typos! It's at least a more honest look, I suppose.I can't carp too much though as my own April Fool's joke was going to be the least funny yet. Unfortunately the premise -- that the idea of Oliver Kamm launching a group blog with Noam Chomsky was patently absurd -- was rather overtaken by reality.
