And Ralph Kramer before Archie.
A Mothers Day note on your incredible list:
Edwin Land tested the first prototype Polaroid Camera on MY MOTHER! LOL. We still have the greasy little picture that resulted.
I am a woman, and like men who are not buffoons. The male-bashing on TV does not appeal to me at all.
That's EASY to answer - and you surely know why. It's because - other than the good Mnsgr's blog here - there is no "p.c." outrage against white males. Most of my corporate and commercial clients (all white men/women) are so very afraid of being politically incorrect, that they will go out of their ways to build a pretty little rainbow of ethnicity in their programs. They'll find actors to "play against type" and then pat themselves on the back for their 'sensitivity' and thoughtful ingenuity. "Gaggggg!". (Plus, the thought of using a minority in any negative light is just dismissed out of hand. They can't handle the letters that they WILL receive.
Anyway, so many of us here on FR - me included - are trying to fight the 'PC' culture. I'm not worried about mass media stereotypes - positive or negative - in regard to my euro_white race. We'll be just fine.
PS-FreeJohn... Have you seen the Brinks Home Security tv spots? Those crack me up. It's always a white guy breakin' in.
Yeah .. I've seen them and I always tell my better half .. "If folks were truly honest, It was a 'certain' minority group that invented the Home Invasion and they started it in my (former) home state .. Floor-E-Duh!"
