Letter: Emo is advised to ignore nay-sayers

Is someone out there paying someone to malign Mr. Emo? It seems like every week there are statements from people, usually not identified, who can say nothing good about Leon.

These people seem to miss the whole point of his various presentations. Yes, sometimes he is serious, but usually most of what he says is tongue-in-cheek. Why can’t they just leave him alone and enjoy Leon’s wit and sense of humor? He has a great command of the English language (do you really think that he periodically butchers it so badly because of ignorance?) and works very hard at creating something that I enjoy reading — as it takes me back to what some see as a better place and time.

Leon, shake off the effects of the nay-sayers. They need to get a life and let the rest of us just spend some time in the 1960s, or the desert, or wherever, at least vicariously.

Leon, keep doing what you do. It gives me a way to forget what this world has become, at least for a period in time (sorry Bill!) and just laugh.

Ron Snipes,
Madera
