Celts for Chu

To the editors:

I have noticed the debate over the comic strip "The Misanthropic Mister Chu." Permit me to propose the renaming of the comic strip to "The Misanthropic Mister Celt."

Please inform the author that he may use as many colorful Celtic stereotypes as he can find. He may therefore depict Celts as hard-drinking, red-haired, freckle-faced, hot-tempered, trouble-making, bar-fighting, blue-face-painted, war-crying, shillelagh-wielding, whiskey-swilling, barbaric, primitive, illiterate, sheep-loving, green-hatted, bagpipe-playing, potato-eating, Guinness-guzzling leprechauns. Permit me also to suggest the use of such classic Celtic phrases as "top o' the mornin' to ye!", and "they're always stealin' me lucky charms!"

It is my sincere hope that this proposal may be of some small aid to you.
