Smiley s crotchety when it involves garbage Swoc people grow and kindly they get older I get more violent I hope I turn out to be an Angry Old Man And I know I will if I can just hang on long enough to get old II a world to turn anyone even a gentle sweet chap like a bit savage think that Im Just getting trot I ve been crotchety for years You hear people going around all over Canada laying My isnt that Smiley crotchety And others replying Yes crotchety is the word If there a word for it it Mind you I love the world around me and up to half a dozen people and I laugh like a mental case at some of the things I see But there Is a limit to the amount of garbage I can stand being thrown in my face day after day in the year 1381 A That makes me Just like the Prime Minister For Instance We have so much surplus wheat that we have a national hernia trying to lift it from here to there Politicians go white trying to Why dont we it away I mean the farmer 1 mean Canada Pay the going rate to people who are starving Up go the taxes So what go up anyway For instance Our educational system caters to themediocre to massproduction mediocre Just like big industry the intellectual elite among our kids are starved to death that is bored to death and the kids who are below average are swept under the rug Ibis means our schools are full of fat lazy kids who are there only because they don t want to face the lean cold world I d turf out on his or her tail at every kid who wasnt interested And I d let him back in with generous help when he became interested For instance Dally newspapers daily Not downright lies merely slant distort and color the news depending on their policy and politics However its a free country and I guess theyre free to lie For instance Television could be a tremendous force for spreading peace and love in the world What it does is spread Jam on cake and violence on Ignorance With a few notable exceptions it serves its patrons garbage in a fancy wrapper Its entertainment does not entertain Its news seeks out the sensational or the silly Its commercials are aimed at a world of morons Do you really believe for example that a certain brand of beer Is making Canada famous throughout the world Or that you can get clothes cleaner in cold water than in bat Or that youll never make it if your armpits sweat And for all this obscenity the three big US networks last year split over billion in profits The CBC which give us the same refuse generally came up with its usual deficit This shows the superiority of Canadian television Somehow For instance There are two laws One of the rich and one for the rest of us And any lawyer and any policeman knows it If youre a dumb kid from or an Indian who got drunk you can rot in Jail for a month or two before your case even heard If youre a middleman doctor or businessman and you nave the money and the right connections youre homo tree and everything is hushed up For instance Poverty Twenty million people living in one of the biggest countries in the world with enormous natural resources And millions living In sordid squalid poverty For Instance The Church Again with a few notable exceptions It does not face life II wrings its hands or washes them Pilatefashion You see many preachers charging Into a finance com and brandishing a whip these days do you For instance This column Is about garbage And I just remembered this is garbage day and I forgot to put mine WEmmwuBAPPt- holiday GEORGETOWN 8775266 ACTON 8532010 You may charge your classified to your Charge Account or details
