Verrrry strange letter from two of the guys in Steely Dan to Luke Wilson in regards to his brother's choice of accepting film roles. I can't tell if it is real or not, but the reference to Zal Yanovsky made me laugh out loud.
..and it is tucked into the official Steely Dan website, so that should be worth something.

The 32 Worst Lyrics of All Time

THE SONG: Bruce Springsteen, "Glory Days"
THE LYRIC: "He could throw that speed ball by you / make you look like a fool"
THE VERDICT: Bruce, we hate to bring this up, because we think you're great and everything, and it might sound a little nitpicky and all, but it's just that . . . um . . . well, a fastball is what Roger Clemens throws. A speedball is what John Belushi took to kill himself. Unless you were trying to make a prophetic comment about Doc Gooden's career, in which case you did a great job.

Fun list, although I can't believe the chorus of Kiss' "Lick It Up" didn't make it. Nice further discussion here.
