Re: Happy Birthday James.
Whoops, you're exactly right. A landmark book by David Roediger, The Wages of Whiteness, explores, in part, how the Irish gained status in the US. Rather than find common cause with the other shit-upon peoples of America—blacks, Asians, Jews, and Southern and Eastern European immigrants—they identified with and absorbed the hierarchy and got in as much as possible with the in crowd. They may not have made much money, but they benefited from gaining the status of white in relation to all those other subhumans. Sorry, Marxists, the revolution has been delayed by scrambling for a place in the pecking order.Wolter wrote:Actually almost all of them are by the legendary American cartoonist Thomas Nast, inventor of the Republican elephant and Democratic donkey.

Re: Happy Birthday James.
Happy birthday to a dude who I can honestly count among my best buddies; you're a great pal and a stellar person, James. Also, having seen you with my own eyes, I can 100% confirm you look just like this:
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

True.

Don't encourage James to expect recognition on more than one day a year. It's bad for his development.Kory wrote:Happy belated!

Happy belated birthday, James.
I know something else that's bad for his development. Hint: There's been a photo of it posted in this very thread!
