Dear Dr Teddy,
I have recently been appalled by the attached photograph which I found on the site of a very famous gypsy jazz guitarist. This type of juvenile behaviour does a great disservice to the music. How can anyone think it is amusing to ridicule two such sad individuals who are obviously on a weekend release program of some sort and still trying to understand what you have to do to produce a sound from the guitar let alone play it. I have absolutely no idea who these two are but I am sure they are not as retarded as they look although I must concede, the one on the left does appear to have lapsed into a coma.
I am sure you would want to join me in condemning this puerile and offensive nonsense.
Yours disgustedly,
Airey Pratt
Quite the most shocking thing I have seen for some time Airey other than that up-skirt shot of Zoot and Cabo at the "Big Boys Arms". Although I recognise Stuart Carter-Farter playing pocket billiards in the background, I do not have any idea who the Stochelo Rosenberg fanboy guitarists are either and despite appearances, I am sure they do not fully deserve this type of ridicule. Our society cannot tolerate such abuse of individual human rights, particularly for the mentally challenged. I am sure if I look closely enough I will find elements of sexism, racism and homophobia in this caricature. I will be contacting Ken Livingston at the first opportunity to see what action he recommends.

I wish you'd stop using that word, Teddy.
Apart from that, I must admit the thread is absolutely hilarious. Well done.

I just knew you would hate it.


I am actually adding to my list of loathsome words. It has an incredible tackiness about it.
