chris_gerribA Right Not To Be Mocked
John C. Wright is still ranting about Bristol Palin. Apparently, even if a woman starts a drunken fight, finding humor in that fact is unacceptable, and pointing out that she started said fight is a distraction. I suppose pointing out that she could have gotten her nose broken for her instead of just unceremoniously hauled out of the place is beyond the pale.
In any event, Wright seeks a right not to be mocked. He's not prepared to extend that right to anybody who disagrees with him.
Two Items of Good News
Item #1 - Last night, my Rotary club, working with various volunteers including the local Girl Scouts, packed over 750 meals for our backpack program. This program sends Darien school-kids home with food on the weekend - food they otherwise wouldn't have. It's a shame that's needed in Darien, but we're doing something about it.
Item #2 - two of my dinner companions last night.

I suspect the response I just left there will reduce him to apoplexy I hope.
Bit busy being a right wing captain of industry today to worry :p
