From the “Wish We’d Written It” File

In the most recent edition of The Arkansas Times, Bob Lancaster offers a hilarious review of 2007. Below, I’ve cut and pasted Lancaster’s two comments on Wally Hall:

Best Wally ride - In one of his sports columns in March, Wally Hall wrote of a traffic accident involving a Jeep Jerokee.

Best Wally bet - In one of his sports columns in May, Wally announced his patriotic support for “the war being wagered in Iraq.”

The hits keep coming: This morning, Wally wrote that Reggie Herring “could fill up a locker room with a blue _steam_ that would make a Marine lifer cringe.”

It’s a nice image, in an inadvertent Wally sort of way. Sort of like when he once wrote he was “perched vicariously on a bar stool.” It’s only brilliant if you mean it to be.
