This is like the old saying, "if you tell a lie long enough and big enough people will start to believe it". Todd H. is brainwashing me into doubting my belief that this was a joke. I fear that if the thread goes another three pages I might be converted. Must...stop...reading...this......thread!

JB is about as cunning a writer working in the fieldning a writer working in the field

Cunning writer or cunning linguist?  I would prefer the latter as to the former.  Many more applications.

That is what the ...... was meant to connotate (the neighbor/weigh business).  I guess I should have put that part in as well.

Thanks James.

Apparently in Greater Cleveland we mangled the rhyme a bit.  According to most sources it's:

Use I before E except after C or sounding as AY as in neighbor and weigh.

I'm afraid the pen name isn't AJ Lieberman.

http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/newsitem.cgi?id=1482

MTV and movie writer Andy Lieberman (Crazy Cool, The Jon Stewart Show) hops aboard with HARLEY QUINN #26, bringing along the amazing artistic talents of Mike Huddleston (The Coffin, Cable) & Troy Nixey (BATMAN: THE DOOM THAT CAME TO GOTHAM)!

 

Click on this for an interview with AJ when he took over Harley Quinn:

Like I have been saying I really have enjoyed the AJ Lieberman written stories that I have read the last couple of days.  And I will continue to search them out.  I highly recommend the first arc of Harley Quinn 26-30.  First rate, IMHO.
