must we say... They Took Him Away

Wed Dec 30 16:59:30 UTC 2009

I can't believe anyone thought Ray and Egg were the same person.  Ray 
has a tendency to "speak from the hip", with little or no apparent 
thought into the occasional effect of his words, whilst Egg--even in 
the midst of a new commentary on the foibles of Danny Ainge--chooses 
her words--even the loaded ones--with care over getting her specific 
point across.

As far as that cowardly group of ass-backwards mentally stunted 
racial terrorists Ray mentioned, I'll be happy when their ilk is gone 
forever from this universe.  It reminds me of why the likes of Peter, 
Paul & Mary, Phil Ochs, Pete Seeger, and so many more raised their 
voices and our awareness as individuals to fight that sort of 
behavior by changing it--one person at a time if need be.

Finally, sadly, this DOES have some bearing on the Celtics, who 
fought racism in their own way by their desire to be known by one 
color--GREEN.  Some of the Team's greatest players faced groups like 
that--and the unbridled stupidity  that came with it--head-on.  It 
shouldn't be our focus, but it should be in our minds, so that 
ignorance never gains another beachhead in world society.
