Dear conference organizers
Decent tea cannot be made with "hot" water. Tea must be made with boiling water.
Libertarians, My Libertarians!
Cruel to be kind means that I love you . Because, while I think you are mistaken, your hearts are in the right place -- yes, even you, Silas -- unlike some people . This Breitbart fellow (discussed in the link above), by all appearances, deliberately doctored a video of Shirley Sherrod to make her remarks appear virulently racist, when they had, in fact, the opposite import. I heard that at a recent Austrian conference, some folks were talking about "Callahan's conservative turn." While that description is not entirely inaccurate, I must say that a lot of these people who today call themselves conservative give me the heebie-jeebies.
Just don't drink it!
ReplyDeleteYou are right of course but I think it's more the fault of the hotel or the caterer. So you should probably direct your ire to them.
ReplyDeleteI think I have seen once in a while where they use a Sterno fire thingie under the water to keep it near boiling. But you're right, usually they just put out a bin of "hot water" and that is disgusting.
As in all cases, I prefer to direct my ire at you.
