I was going to repost something I wrote on Omar Barghouti, the patron saint of BDS, from Divest This! over here at Solomonia, but then my first commenter (an online buddy/fellow blogger/mutual fan) added a comment that made me spray my morning coffee all over my computer screen. Since I didn't want to deprive Sol's readership of a laugh, you can check out the story here.
"...Charly García is an Argentine rock musician of unrivaled talent and artistic integrity. He’s been a giant on the nation’s cultural scene for more than three decades and he traveled to Israel to play two concerts this week. Never a man weighed down by brute notions of political correctness his visit represents another raised middle finger to the boycotters."
These are just insane times we live in.
Don't you just hate it when that happens?
Cleaning up coffee spray from the monitor and the desk, not mention the keyboard and the papers lying nearby is such a nuisance.
But that commenter's observation is spot-on.It's no wonder you lost it, Jon.
This is somewhat relevant:
