The I-Pad is a handy thing-especially when you are waiting around to take a beating.
Today is Martin Luther King’s birthday. That may be all well and good-but more important to me, it is my mother’s birthday. She would have been 93 this year. Now as far as I am concerned THAT’s reason enough for a holiday.
Nonetheless- this little ditty by Tom Lehrer comes to mind on MLK day:
“If, after hearing my songs, just one human being is inspired to say something nasty to a friend, or perhaps to strike a loved one, it will all have been worth the while”
— Tom Lehrer
