An "Office Space" fan! Did you know the military now refers to the rows of medals and other battle ribbons/theater citations of old ("fruit salad" ) as "flair?" Honest!

But this gives me a chance to make a comment about the use of the word 'homo' in my earlier post. Some might regard it as pejorative, but I don't. Homosexual men regularly refer to themselves as 'queer', which, to my ears, sounds quite negative. On the other hand, I deplore the use of the word 'gay' as an adjective describing a homosexual; 'gay' has had its original meaning completely displaced by politically correct style mandarins. I wonder what young people think nowadays when they first hear about 'The Gay Nineties' (if they do) or notice that Nietzsche wrote a book entitled The Gay Science (if they do)?
In any case, my earlier post was offered as a small amusement at the slight (but good-natured) expense of a certain segment of humanity. If there ever comes a time when the offense police suppress all such amusements, humor will have breathed its last.
P.S. to Frank: that Cool Hand Luke line is a great one, indeed. Here's the absolutely precise rendering of it:
"What we have here...is failure...to communicate."
For a long time, I thought there was an 'a' before 'failure', but there isn't. Another great Strother Martin line reading...
I forgot to say thanks for that interesting fact about 'flair'. I hadn't heard that!
