The Austin Chronicle Goes Daily

Oh, c'mon people! Didn't the "Dreamworks is buying the rights to the music of every Austin band" cover story tip you off???? It's amazing the amount of calls, letters, and frantic e-mail we get around April 1 every year. And your second-place choice, "Glen Maxey is Straight!" is actually a joke that Chron writer Spike quipped in response to previous winner of this category, "Ann Richards is gay." And what is it with your obsession in this vein?? Look what else you dreamed up: "Bruce Todd is gay." Yuk-yuk. "George Bush is gay." Oooh, Nanny nanny boo-boo. "Eric Mitchell is black." Can't you do better next year?
