Speaking of Memories, Here’s How The Blower Actually Began
Down in the catacombs, AJ the Archivist reminded Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane that The Blower missed a great opportunity yesterday to remind all our Persons of Consequence about our humble beginnings, when it was the 23rd Anniversary of The Whistleblower’s very first edition. Our single printed page (Edition #1 on May 29, 1990) looked something like this:
Things have hardly changed a lot during the past twenty-three years!
- HURLEY THE HISTORIAN says on this date in 1431, Joan of Arc was burned at the stake. See what happens when women are allowed to serve in combat? [WATCH THIS VIDEO]
- OUR QUOTE FOR TODAY COMMITTEE chose Phyllis Schlafly’s “Much of the demand for women in combat comes from female officers who are eager for medals and promotions.”
NOW SINCE TODAY (MAY 30) IS THE OFFICIAL MEMORIAL DAY, we have more marvelous meter from Bunky Tadwell, the Bard of Cleves:
Memorial Day has come and gone
We can now put on our white shoes
We’ll cook outside with barbecue
And drink up lots of booze.
The summer time is oh, so fine
With beetle bugs all swarming
Let’s hope we all don’t freeze our ass
From Al Gore’s global warming.
REMEMBER: If you can’t improve on the news, you shouldn’t even be reporting it.
