Pearls Before Swine
Thanks to my old friend Felix for the heads up on this link.
"When it became obvious what a dumb and cruel and spiritually and financially and militarily ruinous mistake our war in Vietnam was, every artist worth a damn in this country, every serious writer, painter, stand-up comedian, musician, actor and actress, you name it, came out against the thing. We formed what might be described as a laser beam of protest, with everybody aimed in the same direction, focused and intense. This weapon proved to have the power of a banana-cream pie three feet in diameter when dropped from a stepladder five-feet high."-- Kurt Vonnegut
I hope you all can join me and the good people of New York for banana-cream pie this Saturday.
