A couple of years ago i walked thru Rittenhouse Park and some hippier-than-thou folks stopped me (fellow traveler after all). Their jive sounded to me like lefty richkid choir preaching - vague, on-the-nose, a little lame. Harmless. But they had long hair and smokes so I stopped awhile. They had an artist coop/commune thing going on in NC or WV, down there somewhere.They also had a whole box of t-shirts - word-for-word: "Stop Bitching! Start a Revolution!" 10 bucks.They couldn't really get it together on what revolution they were starting, or where, or why - so I traded some marxy farxy with them a little and took off. They were nice kids but the t-shirts were shitty.So, the "stop bitchin/start a rev" line is not only lame, its a ripoff. These ain’t radical sympathies.

They couldn’t really get it together on what revolution they were starting, or where, or why – so I traded some marxy farxy with them a little and took off. They were nice kids but the t-shirts were shitty.

So, the “stop bitchin/start a rev” line is not only lame, its a ripoff.

This window is a calculated, shrewd maneuver.In short, when's Palin coming to the Barnes and Noble?

In short, when’s Palin coming to the Barnes and Noble?
