i'm flying away...

once again, to Kalamazoo, so I'll catch up with y'all on Thursday.
Kalamazoo is the sort of town that I think you should go to by train, rather than plane. It's a Tommy Dorsey sort of town... you almost wish you were sitting in the club car with Tommy and the boys from the band, having a few stiff ones, beating a heater and tapping along to a little late night jam session. Oh well, maybe in the next life.
see ya.

here’s the rock...

I’ve been hiding under until the Political Correctness fad goes away. By the way, we had a great Fourth of July… two parties, lots of meat, beer and loud music as well as the annual water fight. Hope your celebrations were as much fun.
Here’s the latest from Tongue Tied, it seems like the folks down under are starting to get fed up with the nonsense as well.

Bugger Them

A survey of people in Australia found that more than two-thirds of them are fed up with the prevalance of political correctness, reports the Queensland Sunday Mail.

The survey of 1200 people by research company The Truth Report found those aged 18 to 24 and over 50 were most likely to be annoyed.

"To the pushers of political correctness, people are just saying, 'They've had their go, now bugger them' and adopting a more pragmatic and practical approach," said AustraliaScan social commentator David Chalk.
