I've enjoyed Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank's well-honed, satirical observations on all things political for some time now. They helped relieve the political heartburn I experienced throughout much of the Bush administration. This week, Milbank demonstrated that even the breath of fresh air sweeping our nation's capital is not immune from being ribbed.
And then he had this to say about the taped performance by Yo-Yo Ma, et al, during a online chat:
I must say I was quite dismayed to learn that Yo-Yo Ma was doing the
cello equivalent of lip-synching. I did notice that he was smiling an
awful lot while he played. I thought this was pride originally, but now
I recognize it as the smile a prankster make when his practical joke is
going well.
