c'mon. mike love is soul-less fool. stupid and inarticulate, to boot. virtually anyone who can hit pitches accurately could have easily filled
his shoes as a beach boy. can you say that about brian or, for that
matter, any of the wilson boys?
none of these are necessarily reasons to _hate_ him....but i would not
cross a busy street to break bread with him either. simply no interest
in him or anything he may have to say. i would, however, pay $100,000
cash money to see him levitate.
