Back from the beyond

Post – June 25, 2002

“God Bless America Day” would be pathetically funny if I wasn’t convinced that a possible majority of Americans might agree with this idea. Rather than making me laugh, that scares me.

But rather than write a rant, I have to admit that Michele said it much better than I could. (And special kudos to Miguel for his alternate “HFS Day” suggestion.)

    Cheesy I can understand, but scary? Why?

    Well, a certain level of cheese does rise to scariness …

    I find it scary because it would indicate that the majority of Americans were willing to see such things in so jingoistic and sectarian a fashion.

    Dave, that’s *exactly* what I meant by “scary.” Great minds and all that.

    I’m thinking of adding “psychic wordsmith” to my business cards …

    I thought every day was God Bless America Day!
