I am a typical Louie Louie Generation lad. That means in dog years I am dead. As I mentioned in today’s podcast, I am young at heart, but somewhat older in other places. In short, some of the butter has slipped off my pancakes. And I guess I must be living proof that evolution can go backwards… because when I saw a comment from Broadway star Lea DeLaria in this week’s New York Magazine I immediately stopped stirring my coffee with my car keys, I quickly put the coffee cup down on the table next to my big, comfortable, manly, black leather poppa chair, and I stood up so fast that I felt weightless for a moment… and said something that sounded like Gezorninplatz. The comment was, and I quote, “Gender is so passé.” Folks…no it’s not. At least not for me.
Dick – thanks a lot for reminding me that I am old enough to remember I had the album from which the original phrase “to be or not to be – that is the Gazorninplatz! came from…
And were you around at ‘BZ to see the sign on North Harvard St that said “To hell with urban renewal?” I’ll send you the picture soon!
