Addis Minus

Discounting politicians, the jerk of the week is Paul Addis, 35, a "performance artist" from San Francisco. This selfish creep went to the northern Nevada desert, and while festival attendees were enjoying the total lunar eclipse, he set fire to the Burning Man, the cult icon which is the reason for the celebration, and which was scheduled for ceremonial burning on Saturday. He even had the nerve to resist arrest, and I hope the officer got in a few good licks. Addis is out on bail, and if you encounter his disreputable person, please feel free to insult him appropriately. You may tell him I asked you to.
