A New Southern (and Female) Dave Barry


Every once in awhile you read a writer who really has some talent. K. Williams Brown is a columnist in the Statesman Journal of all places and every Sunday cranks out a column entitled Not So Lame. She's not Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, or even John Grisham, but she is definitely funny and has that Larsonesque slightly-off-kilter view of life that I appreciate. Her column on her ant farm earlier this year was a howlingly funny classic. For gun buffs, the one I've included below ain't bad. This young lady will not be here long if her talent gets the recognition that it deserves, so read it while you can.
