Grandpa Garth Does it Again
Grandpa Garth has another beaut of a column in today’s Herald. This time Mr George takes some time to blow his own trumpet over a recent, no doubt inspiring and engaging, “talk” he gave to a few 7th form students. NZ Pundit expects it contained many nostalgic references to those by gone times when women wore aprons and a man’s house was his castle, and a healthy scattering of those politically incorrect quips Grandpas and Grandmas often make. Mr George notes:
“And the feedback I received from the teacher was that the class loved my talk because “he’s so down to earth”. As one who is comfortable in his own skin and, more importantly, in his own mind, I am in the habit of speaking plainly, as readers of this column will have observed”
You sure do speak plainly Mr George. You sure do. Anyway, Mr George then goes on to elucidate the obvious conclusion that the students’ enjoyment of his “talk” was solely due to their upbringing in this “era of political correctness”.
Yet more proof that good journalism is the ability to meet the challenge of filling space.
