That line from the father's song in Mary Poppins, where he's going on about how nothing can go wrong, in Britain in 1910.  That's about the point I realized the boy was gonna die in a trench.

Yeah, she got called on her assertion (backed up by some hipster youtube vid) that saying "I hate straights" is different from "I hate homosexuals" or "I hate Blacks".  When I questioned this, I was told to "check my privilege" (which is hipster for "shut up" and/or SCREEEECH).  I watched the video, and the guy was saying it's okay to hate straights because he's terrified of them.  I came back to ask Garbo if the guy didn't just justify the "Gay panic defense" (ie, fear is an excuse for bigotry), but she had already flounced.

I don't think I like her much.  She has gone from an egilatarian to a bigot.

OH right, that thing i went thru the trouble of transcribing.

On a side note, didnt know Garbo=J.G., but from some vague recollections, it makes sense.

Gaw damn, Twid.  I hope things get better out there for you.


In other news, I had an interview for a position at the Hilton, Cook III (pastry/restaurant).  I think I really impressed the woman interviewing me; showed up early, was very close about a couple recipes I admitted to never having even seen before (including one I misunderstood what exactly was being made), showed good sanitary practice knowledge.  My only thing is I have ZERO experience, including college training.  :(  There are three more interviews, I was the first.  Gotta hope for the best.

Incidentally, Garbo/Juana sent me a good book the Prison system ages ago that I got recently. Good book.

I imagine she'll be well enough. I think they've ruled out lung cancer, so whatever it is it probably won't kill her. Or it might, but I'm taking the good enough for now approach. I'll worry about it if we find out I have to.
