		Lazlo Toth was an Australian geologist who attacked Michelangelo's Pieta in 1972 (at 33) and dismissed on reason of insanity.
		Lazlo Toth was a pen name and persona of Don Novello, in a series of letters written to politicians and corporations.

		Lazlo Toth was at the time 33 years old, and was under the delusion that he was Jesus Christ.
		Whatever Lazlo meant to say by mutilating the Pieta, and I have no idea, as he never broached this subject with me and never hinted to me in any way that he might do such a thing, he was silenced by art-restorationist Deoclecio Redig de Campos and his pots of marble dust and glue.
		Toth was apprehended, detained by the police and charged with crimes that would have brought a nine-year prison sentence, had he been convicted.

		Toth: We were very sorry to learn of your disappointment in some aspects of our service during your travel with us in November, but appreciate your giving us your observations.
		Toth: Thank you for your recent letter concerning Preparation H. Please be advised that H stands for hemorrhoids.
		Toth, Your letter of October 5th has arrived at this Congregation for the Causes of the Saints in which you speak of a "miracle" granted through the intercession of Blessed JUNIPER SERRA.

		Lazlo is a funny as ever, but the responses he receives aren't as funny as in his other books.
		The addressees of Lazlo's letters are probably two-thirds politicians, such as Al Gore and Dubya, and one-third "other." Other addressees range from companies such as the maker of Hungry Man dinners to Queen Elizabeth II to Saddam Hussein.
		Often, the replies to Lazlo's letters are just as funny as his original letters, especially when the reply has absolutely nothing to do with what Lazlo said, which is something everyone has experienced when writing a letter to a politician or corporation.

		Lazlo Toth, is still at it: writing zany letters to famous people-to Bill Cinton, the Pope, Dubya-and sometimes getting replies.
		To President Clinton in 1996, Toth proposes that the solution for the Balkans is a "new multi-religion inspired religion," with Wednesday as its sabbath.
		Typical Lazlo missives are the ones in this third collection of them complaining to Delta Air Lines on the assumption that the company has something to do with the Delta Partners that keeps him waiting for the crown for a broken tooth.

	Interview with Don Novello (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Welcome to the twisted "is-he-serious?" genius of ultraright, ultraleft, ultramiddle, ultrafunny Lazlo Toth, the letter-writing alter ego of Don Novello, born in Ashtabula and raised in Lorain, where he still has family.
		The Toth character is just about as old as the Sarducci one, Novello said in a telephone call from his San Francisco home last week.
		Lazlo Toth was born in 1972, in a strident letter of right-wing support to disgraced Vice President Spiro Agnew, said Novello in the sing-songy voice that hints at the sardonic Sarducci.

		Lazlo Toth's entire legacy is built upon these letters he writes and the crazy-assed responses people send him back.
		In 1976, Lazlo writes the Queen of England: "Dear Madam ____, It sure was nice of you to come over here to America and forgive us and help us celebrate the Bycentenial...I heard that you were more than a little put off by the choice of songs President Ford had played at the dinner.
		Toth, I am commanded by the Queen to thank you for your letter, and to tell you how much Her Majesty enjoyed her visit to America....For your information, the Queen has no surname, but belongs to the House of Windsor, of which she is the Head.

	Today in Odd History: Laszlo Toth,"Jesus Christ,"Attacks the Pieta (May 21, 1972)
		Although art historians wept over the damage, and the media decried Toth as a cultural terrorist, radicals hailed his "gentle hammer" with cries of "No more masterpieces!" Toth was, briefly, a sensation.
		Although Tiberio Calcagni, one of the master's students, attempted to repair the mutilated statue, his patches are apparent, and the left leg of the Christ figure is still missing.
		Toth was apprehended, and charged with crimes that would have brought a nine-year prison sentence, had he been convicted.

	Book Review: The Lazlo Letters
		Lazlo was classic because he created a character that bordered on unbelievable but never crossed the line where you couldn't imagine your nutty uncle at the typewriter.
		I'm with ya!" and is signed "Lazlo Toth, voting for Richard Nixon since 1952!" Later Toth wrote to Mobil Oil to thank them "for all that the oil companies have done for this country." And even the most vile dictators seemed pleased to hear that Lazlo was a lifelong fan.
		Lazlo is an inspiration to all — even our four-footed friends, or at least Daniel O' Mara of Austin, writing to CEOs as Steven the Irish Setter, such as this excerpt (in McSweeney's) from a letter to Peter Bijur of Texaco: "I bark all night at least once a month.

		In 1972, Novello created Toth -- an enthusiastic letter writer whose facetious missives and their replies were collected in two bestselling books.
		Novello as Toth has returned with From Bush to Bush: The Lazlo Toth Letters (Simon and Schuster, 2003), which includes his poet laureate application letter.
		In one letter, Toth nominated himself for the post of California poet laureate, submitting "The Pumpkin in the Birdcage (Poem for an impeachment trial)" as a sample of his work.

	Citizen Lazlo!: The Lazlo Letters, Volume 2 (Citizen Lazlo!) by Workman Publishing Company
		Lazlo Toth - Nixon-loving, airline-food-hating, Imelda-lusting, Russian-Federation-anthem-writing local nut and obsessive complainer - is back for another go at the politicians and corporations, Having talked up the first Lazlo book to my sons, I was anxious to share Don Novello's delightful humor with them.
		As if that's not insensitive enough, Toth writes to the Vatican's Congregation for the Causes of the Saints to report a phony miracle (something involving chewing gum) through the intercession of California's St. Junipero Serra.
		The original book ('The Lazlo Letters') was set in the mid-70s and was essentially a tremedously funny, well-executed goof on Watergate and its participants.

		However, the conventional wisdom is that the Lazlo in Lazlo's career is John Shotwell their sound man prior to Cal, (actually prior to Trevor, prior to Cal but that is nitpicking).
		Correction - the FAQ actually states that while Lazlo is the nickname of John Shotwell, it is not the Lazlo in the song.
		And I quoteth from the FAQ: "Lazlo the Soundman is said NOT to be the Lazlo from "Lazlo's Career", and that that Lazlo is a sprite that follows the Frubus around." So I believe the song is still open to interpretation.

		Novello wrote on and off for Saturday Night Live for years (he is often credited with the "cheeseburger, cheeseburger" sketches, among others) and sometimes appeared on the show, or on other programs as Sarducci.
		In yet another identity, he was Laszlo Toth, author of a brilliant book entitled The Lazlo Letters, which actually defies description but I'll try: Novello made up a character named Lazlo Toth, named after Laszlo Toth (note the different spelling), the latter being the man who took a hammer to Michelangelo's Pieta.
		What Novello's Toth wrote was almost as destructive.
