This year's award....

[KBCraig]

This year's award for the greatest disparity between online persona and real-life person goes to...

(envelope, please!)

...Boston T. Party, who in person looks like a polite, charming, well-spoken, self-deprecating and humble statesman.

I've never been more surprised to see someone speak, after having formed a completely different opinion based solely on his internet writings. I'm pleased to have been wrong. He was quite magnanimous about the whole FSP v. FSW ordeal.

There's a one-hour video on Homeland Stupidity, but you don't have to watch the whole thing. I was pleasantly surprised within the first minute.
