    Scott is absolutely right about this one. Jackson Smith is an employee
and
a friend of mine. If you were unfortunate enough to read the stuff that
Wayne said
about Fred in the press you'd know what I'm talking about. The guy
befriended
Jackson, then went on to tear his dad up in the press. As Dylan once said
"What
Kinda Friend Is This"? I don't care if you're a musician, a rocket
scientist, or
a janitor. You hurt one of my friends and I'll let you know about it. But
you're right, this is not the forum for it. It's just that when I even hear
the name
W.K.I want to cringe. There's more to the story but I won't go into it any
longer
and I'll refrain from any further discussions on W.K.. Sincerely, M T C
