Next Door to Greatness

Quoted from someone else, I do not remember whom.

Well, you’re right enough about most of that. Kip McKean has a way of making whatever he does seem like the cosmic center of the universe. All tools of media and current events are at his disposal. I still think it’s funny how the Internet used to be the “bad guy” but now he’s using it for his own ends.

There is this article on icocnews about Chicago’s largest service in 3 years or whatever it is. In the article, Roger Lamb makes a point of saying the hotel where the service was being held also was a polling place for the Iraqi elections. What the heck does the Iraqi election have to do with the Chicago ICC’s largest service? Nothing. But It’s the McKean way– which Lamb is well- schooled in– take anything that is dramatic or sensational or well-known and attach yourself to it. It makes people think you’re special.
