the cliburn morning news

Until yesterday, that's what the local paper had become, with daily coverage of a piano competition no one cares about anyway. If I wanted to see week after week of piano journalism in my paper, I'd have lived in Pianochussets.

There's no real joke here; I'm just tired of the coverage and am glad it's over. Now we can move on to important things, like Tom Sizemore's cries of foul play. Ahh, justice!
