| ==Pride== | |||
| There is a fair amount to be proud of, I suppose, though as with most history it doesn't really foster pride if you look beneath the surface. The ], for instance, is a source of pride in my region, but only because at the time my people were so enslaved to their masters that they could be discarded like old boots--and they were. The march was really just a way of saying to Parliament "we are human, you cannot let them treat us like this." It didn't directly achieve any improvement in the lot of the people of Jarrow. So was it a failure? No, I don't think it was. It makes people like me feel a pride--perhaps irrational--in the spirit of the people of my region.

Time I stopped being a curmudgeon about signs of appreciation
Everybody has to grow up some time, I guess. I've had many barn stars, but this one touched my heart. It made me feel all fluffy and new. The official video of Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" is just a first order approximation of how it affected me. The trouser flares should be much wider, the Afro should be about the size of the moon. The beat should merit a notation in your medical records with implications for any future cardio-thoracic exploration.
