Open Mike Update - Errata sheet on Floating Bubbles

This opinion Column, still awaiting... Sorry, you already know syndication status.

What needs to be clarified, however, is that Code of Conduct Rule 1471 mandates that whenever a greater truth is illustrated thru a hyperbolically exaggerated spoof (hyperbole) or an thru an out and out false statement, that this use of parody must be absolutely clear by the context or thru explicit identification of the particular truthful falsehood as being a "Parody".

So, in a strict constructionist application of CC 1471, Ted's dog is not really named Floating Bubbles.  Actually, his dog is called "Splash" - literal truth.
