Deep shades of “Politics and the English Language” indeed!! (George Orwell, fyi.) Groucho sez “Read it! Den Reread it!!”
A lil’ ephemera
“Good Beer and Sandwiches” …words to live by, my god.
And “The Glamour Shop” of Ralston, Nebraska manages to present the most un-glamourous image possible. Hail to Lost Irony, Nebraska!!
…and a site that’s more Oaktown than Oakland.
Totally fascinating, well designed and eminently useful site that categorizes and locates crime on a colorful, city map of Oakland. It’s the info that the bullshit local “news” or the cops or the neighbors seldom if ever share or even have. Also fun to see if your own impact makes a “splash.”
“Lookee Ma!! Stabbin’ that hobo in the street got our trailer park ‘on the radar.’ wOOt wOOt!!”

“Orthodoxy, of whatever colour, seems to demand a lifeless, imitative style. The political dialects to be found in pamphlets, leading articles, manifestos, White papers and the speeches of undersecretaries do, of course, vary from party to party, but they are all alike in that one almost never finds in them a fresh, vivid, homemade turn of speech.”
reflecting on teh state of what text messaging and so called mediaspeak has done to english. i think we can harvest a new Energy, all we have to do i wrap Orwell’s grave in copper wire and hook it up to the grid and give a cheep source of energy.
