If you are one of the 12 loyal readers of the AMI blog, or if you receive AMI e-mail, you are well aware that the bravest organization behind only the U.S. Marines and the Muppets, is not a fan of one Dave Navarro as you can read here.  

Even in our e-mail disclaimer to loyal followers, politicians, and the European Dwarf Council (EDC), we warn that:

• Mustaches should be worn at the individual's own risk, and AMI is not responsible for mustaches that make men look like child molesters or Dave Navarro. 
• If your mustache causes you to have an erection for more than four hours, seek immediate attention from a doctor, spouse, girlfriend, or Dave Navarro.

Despite this fair warning, the advertising trade rag Ad Age has a story out this week, in which it professes Navarro to be a "cult hero."  Yes, and the next president of the United States will be a mustached female midget from Alabama schooled at the fabled Alabama Institute for Mimes & Gutter Repair Professionals. 

We suggest sending writer Daisy Whitney an e-mail (daisywhitney@comcast.net) to let her know that Navarro is foolish, worthless, and that Ad Age should retract its piece as most among us  loathe him. This was our note to Ms. Whitney:  

Daisy,  

It is a shame that you soil your reputation as a journalist by referring to Dave Navarro as a "Cult hero." Navarro, as you can read in this blog posting regarding his interview with the American Mustache Institute, is nothing more then a vapid, sycophantic waste of poor grooming habits with an inflamed sense of self-importance bordering on lunacy. You cite him as executive producer of his new program, but we would question whether Dave can spell executive producer. And certainly, if you were to survey most U.S. males about their preference for either Navarro or an evening of listening to TV flame-out Fran Drescher, most would take an eternity listening to Drescher's cackling laugh.   Please, we beg you, if you are to cover Navarro's pathetic exploits in the future, attempt to paint a full picture of his true, sorry nature. Carry on.    

Carry on indeed.
