I thought your response to my posting the article and comments was sheer brilliance. (I am absolutely serious here. This is NOT sarcasm.) "i have had grits for breakfast everyday for about 2 years now. i am serious. it's either that or oatmeal and i don't really like oatmeal." I tossed out a lot of shit about politics...you countered with a comment based on personal reality. Your lengthy post was also a comment on personal realities...but I got it the first time.


No matter what anybody anywhere does, no matter what happens on this planet, all we really have are our own personal realities. I have people in the flood area that I care about and I have done what I can for them. My own personal reality is focused on the fact that it's Friday, we're having steaks for dinner and I have a brand new rose pink peignoir.

I loved "My Cousin Vinny" and I despise grits. Fifteen years in Kentucky couldn't convince me to eat those things.

my grits defense.

after some ponderance of the matter, i have come to fully accept that my preferrence for instant grits is indefensible. i submit however, that i did have a terrible upbringing in a desperately remote town in rural alaska which might offer some explanation to this clearly inexcusable offense and ask that fact be taken into consideration during sentencing, as it might also offer some possible explanation for some ignorance on my part.

to my good friends in the south, i offer my humblest apology to all who i have insulted with my with my obviously poor choice of breakfast foods. it was not my intention to offend. i mistakenly and now i think we now agree, selfishly thought it was just a great source of low glycemic carbohydrates. we now know that grits are much more. i have no excuse. i am deeply sorry. may god have mercy on my soul.
