Elvis Presley - so-called King Of Rock 'n Roll would have been 79 years old today if he wouldn't have died on toilet in some southern swampland. All of the Black guys he ripped-off musically are just a bit older.
Anyhoo . . .
TO MARK THIS EPIC DAY IN THE HISTORY OF WHITE PEOPLE WE HAVE 5 SUGGESTIONS FOR KANSAS CITY ELVIS PRESLEY CELEBRATION!!!
1. Ask Bill Nigro To Play Hip-Hop In Westport - The answer will confirm the legacy of modern pop music and it's divisive and racially segregated history.
2. Kansas City Record Store Visit - Remember the long lost days when music was tied to a physical commodity and profitable. TKC NOTE: You haven't visited a real KCMO record store unless the lady behind the counter has horrible hair color.
3. Visit Meth Town - Always a great reminder that white people aren't superior whatsoever . . . AND you're likely to see a great many unwitting Elvis impersonators who have much better style than their mullet wearing colleagues.
4. Mexican Grocery Store - Pick up a velvet painting of the King . . . Get one of Jesus too for half price.
5. Download a Little Richard song . . . OR fear the largely Asian and hip-hop influenced Electronica epoch in current pop music, read a bit about postmodernism and shudder.
More in a bit . . .
Elvis is dead?
ReplyDeleteSpend the day on the toilet, reading porn and between oxy pills, contemplate all those druggies you will help Nixon send to jail.
ReplyDeleteThen spend your eternity knowing your only child married MJ and a scientologist.
In March of this year, Cathy Young at the Boston Globe reminds the reader that in 1988 Rev. Jesse Jackson happily chanted "Hey hey, ho ho, Western Culture's got to go!" at Stanford University. She explains that the National Association of Scholars led the way in eliminating Stanford University's Western Culture requirement. Young finds an "exasperating paradox" that the "West is attacked as uniquely oppressive even though it has gained unprecedented rights and freedoms for women, gays and lesbians, and for individuals in general." Also neglected in this bashing of Western civilization is the fact that "self-criticism, too, is a Western tradition." But instead, the self-criticism morphs into a "self-loathing." Young notes the "politically correct taboos surrounding any discussions about slavery in African and Arab societies." She is dismayed about the "wrongheaded approach to multicultural education that stresses the positive aspects of other civilizations and the negative aspects of our own" and maintains it actually breeds a dangerous "ignorance."
ReplyDeleteDennis Prager in "Why the Left Hates the Old" maintains that "the left's dismissal of old people is much more than another left-wing ad hominem attack." Prager maintains that at the core of the left's contempt for the old is "a yearning for utopia" and the other is an inflated sense of "self esteem." Those "on the left are certain that they are smarter, kinder, more moral and more compassionate" than any old, antiquated people or ideas.
Get rid of all the white people you idiot, here is what is left.

Common Core goes to college.
ReplyDeleteIn 2011, the University of California at Los Angeles wrecked its English major. Such a development may seem insignificant, compared with, say, the federal takeover of health care. It is not. What happened at UCLA is part of a momentous shift that bears on our relationship to the past—and to civilization itself.
Until 2011, students majoring in English at UCLA had to take one course in Chaucer, two in Shakespeare, and one in Milton—the cornerstones of English literature. Following a revolt of the junior faculty, however, during which it was announced that Shakespeare was part of the “Empire,” UCLA junked these individual author requirements. It replaced them with a mandate that all English majors take a total of three courses in the following four areas: Gender, Race, Ethnicity, Disability and Sexuality Studies; Imperial, Transnational, and Postcolonial Studies; genre studies, interdisciplinary studies, and critical theory; or creative writing.
In other words, the UCLA faculty was now officially indifferent to whether an English major had ever read a word of Chaucer, Milton or Shakespeare, but the department was determined to expose students, according to the course catalog, to “alternative rubrics of gender, sexuality, race, and class.”
Pathetic.
"Pathetic" is the word I would use to describe an aficionado of hip hop and rap who "shudders" at other musical genres.
