Check out what Jeff Erickson From Bloomington, Minn., left for Mr. Schindler:

you did a very great thing...I just hope the jews today in the usa don't forget how good you were too..alot of them today seem to be very money hungry and with out feelings..I could be wrong.

Yeah, he could be wrong. Though who could question the judgment of a man who thinks "alot" is a word, especially one who lives in such a culturally diverse place as Bloomington, Minn. I mean, that's like the Jewish capital of the U.S., no? (Maybe he saw one the last time Gabe Kapler batted against the Twins.) With 88% of its population white (as opposed to 44% in New York City), it's the melting pot to end all melting pots.

What's more pathetic than his bogus assertion that "alot" of Jews are "with out feelings" is the fact that, if Schindler were alive today, he would probably tell him the same and think he was saying something nice. Now that's an assclown with a master's degree in irony.

God knows what he may have written for Jackie Robinson. Maybe something like, "Thanks for paving the way for blacks to play pro sports. My fantasy football league is doing much better with Negroes at running back!"

I always say the Internet teaches us, more than any other medium, about people with whom we share the planet. Having grown up in a split Catholic-Jewish family and making countless friends of both faiths (with feelings!), even while eschewing religion myself, I can't say I've run into anyone as lame-brained as Jeff Erickson. But at least I know guys like that are out there. And it couldn't be sadder.

Today's Web Finds:

• Tramps Like Us Video Page — My favorite Springsteen tribute band had added a bunch of clips to its site. 'Net vids rarely translate accurately the power of live rock, but these are pretty good.

• April 14 Is Poop For Peace Day — "Side by side in a public bathroom, any two human beings are stripped of their differences and reduced to their most basic essence: a pair of feet sticking out below the stall, and a pair of butt trumpets performing a greasy symphony to lament humanity's non-negotiable deference to the call of the vile."

• Video: Coworker Maze Scare — You know those prank sites that tell you to concentrate heavily on the screen, and then some scary-ass picture pops up? Well, this chick absolutely FREAKS when she falls for it.

• How to Insult Foreign People — Not sure how to tell a French Red Sux fan to go fuck a cow? Just tell 'em, "Retourne enculer les mouches!"

• Man Gets $218 Trillion Phone Bill — On the bright side, he's got 10 days to settle or face legal proceedings. I'd start learning how to rob banks, like real fast.

• eBay: Candy Bras — I'd break my diet for this.
