Open letter to THC, Re: Alex
Nov. 8th, 2004 06:03 pmDear The History Channel:
In re: The 'True Story' of Alexander the Great you aired last night.
While it is completely true that "They didn't call him Alexander the Spineless" (as per your excellent advertising scheme), it is also true that they didn't call him "Alexander the Strategically Incompetant" or "Alexander the Incredibly Heterosexual", or "Alexander the Sulkily Moronic" or "Alexander the One Who Possessed Many Black & White Elephants Who Charged in Doubletime, circa movies of 1937".
No love at all,
Kali
