Surly Wombat

Today is Armistice Day. The day we have a chance to say and give thanks for the freedom we have.

I’m sure someone has said this before, but the trouble with free speech is that even idiots get a voice. As I was wandering around some blogs I came across some horrendously racist and intolerant ones (I’m not linking to them, maybe the children will get tired if no one comes out to play with them), if there is something that really pisses me off it’s “isms”.

I really wouldn’t be surprised that in 50 years people will be categorized by their DVD encoding region, “Damn them onees coming over here with their early release dates and stealing our wimmin!” That makes about as much sense as most “isms”.
