Dear Defamer (and LAT)

Apparently Michael Eisner put out a memoir about going to summer camps in Vermont. Apparently it hasn't done particularly well. Apparently Eisner thinks it is a hit in Vermont.

Defamer quotes an LAT article and adds its own commentary:
“It’s definitely a hit in Vermont,” Kirshbaum said. “Unfortunately, Vermont is not one of the major population centers of the United States.”

If “it’s doing well” is “jump out the window—you’ve sold three copies,” then “It’s definitely a hit in Vermont” translates to something like, “We didn’t have the heart to tell you about the massive toilet paper shortage in the northeast.”

I feel quite confident that I speak for all Vermonters* by asking the following:

When the hell did Michael Eisner put out a book???

Dude, at least with the whole Phish thing there was a little bit of cred that came with it...

*Plus or minus, say, 600,000 of 'em.
