Steve Dull: The Tribune's vice adviser

Somehow he has ended up at the Chicago Tribune as the expert on vice. Is it any wonder that people--especially the young--are turning away from newspapers?

As a kid, I thought Steve was a semi-cool, trouble-making, alcoholic DJ, who brought us Disco Demolition at Comiskey Park and had a vasectomy done live on the radio. That was 20 years ago. He has since gotten rid of his partner, gone sober, stopped being funny, and become an obnoxious bore whose greatest achievement in the past 10 years has been seeing Howard Stern go off the airwaves.

Back in the 80s, I remember hearing Steve talk about doing a newspaper column, I think when he was making fun of Richard Roeper or someone. He said he could easily crank out a funny column each day of the week. In his stint as "vice adviser," he's covered the following topics:

1. Going to a bunch of White Sox games last season.

And that's about it so far.

But I suppose we should wait and see what develops. What other vices will Steve cover in the coming year?

Eating too much deep dish pizza?
Talking too much about masturbation?
Wearing too many Hawaiian shirts?

Let's take a look at them and have some fun with them, as Steve wrote in his column. I'm hoping we can make fun of the funnyman a time or two.
