You know, after Katrina they said our music scene would vastly improve, but the Houston Symphony still sounds like amateur crap. What gives?

Well, Taranto ripped our local Symphony a new one over political correctness gone amok:

Handel’s Messiah
By Conductor Christopher Seaman
Both an awe-inspiring holiday tradition and a memorable religious experience, Handel’s Messiah returns this holiday season. Guest conductor Christopher Seaman leads Houston’s premier performance of Handel’s choral masterwork, which includes the timeless Hallelujah Chorus.

If they really want to be sensitive to those who can’t stomach “Christmas,” shouldn’t they change the name of the work to, say, Handel’s “Dude”?

Since they can’t handle Christmas Time, let’s see what other days of the week and months the Moonbats want to change:
Monday = Change to Munday so they can spell it.
Tuesday = Change to Twosday so they can spell it.
Wednesday = Change to Wensday so they can spell it.
Thursday = Named after Thor. Pagan God. Perfectly fine.
Saturday = Has “turd” in it. Obviously changed by the censors. Change back to Sashitday.
February = Change to Febuary so they can spell it.
March = Soldiers march. Too military. Be more specific: “March For Peace.”
June = Sounds like it has “Jew” in it. Change it. “Martin Luther King Month.” (“Um… but he was born in January” “RACIST!”)
July = Sounds like “Jew lie.” Well, they do. That’s why we’re in Iraq. Damn Neocons. Keep it the way it is.

Rule breaker! Rule Breaker!
Now you’re just a mule… shaker.
To: Everyone
Ok I have no idea what that meant either.
But ALa did do a very nice job on the Carnival of Comedy in spite of the blatant and utterly unforgiveable rule breaking.
She added a nice touch with the ‘Rules Guys Wish Women Knew’. Even more fitting considering the upcoming heterosexual nuptials between Frank and Sarah.
Why not go over there to Blonde Sagacity, read the current carnival of comedy and call ALa a mule shaker or a rule breaker or something that rhymes with ‘ool acre’
