Sour Grapes
Sour Grapes
Dear Salient,
Well its Tuesday again and time to have an ego trip by writing to Salient. This week I don't have a helluva lot to say except that after reading the May 28 issue of Salient and its report on the SGM (that's the meeting you all turned up to and saved our beloved president from certain destruction by the Warsaw Pact) I'd say we have a slight case of 'sour grapes' amongst our Salient writers (no offense boys - so don't ban this letter from publication.)
To Mr R. N. Phillippsss (?) who attempted (unsuccessfully) to publicly admonish me in his letter, in that same issue of Salient, I say 'blaah'! (excuse the language). By the way R.N. (Royal Navy?) Phillippsss the word is 'diuretically' not 'diumetically.' How you passed School Cert. English, I'll never know.
Well thanks folks for reading my letter I enjoyed writing it and I've had my ego trip for the day so I'll sign off now.
James Doolittle
(A.R.S.E.)P.S. It means 'Association of Rightist Society Exponents' and not 'Antipodean Rock Sitters Equity' as Mr Phillippsss libellously claims.
