Someone really needs to point out here (to one of the participants in this thread), I think, that Keillor writes FICTION and his radio show is music & humor and FICTION. And grownups realize this. As to whether he sings well, whether his stuff is funny, whether it's worth listening to or reading, those are all matters of taste, and nothing more or less. I don't understand a mentality that feels it needs to come back and poke at a disagreement over such a subjective thing, over & over again.
