And one more Thing

Today's is George Orwell's birthday. He would have been a hundred today if he were still alive.

He is and remains one of the my favorite writers of all time. And not just because we'd be neighbors on bookshop shelves if I ever do get published.

Happy Birthday, George, I mean Eric.

With that in mind, I link to one of my favorite short story/essays of all time.
Shooting an Elephant by George Orwell.

Of course, no one hitting Intellectual Poison really cares about Orwell's birthday as a large proportion of surfers are just looking for Stripperella pics or drawings. And they all want nudes. Why not just go and find some naked pics of Pam Anderson and use Photoshop to cartoon-ize them? Or, better yet, get a life, its a cartoon!
