Love your fortune cookie.

Great photo, great concept, hilarious one liner.

I pulled up your archive to see if you had other humorous posts.

First stop - James DePreist.

I lived in Portland, OR in the 1990’s and DePreist was the Symphony conductor.

Portland is the most self-consciously ALL white politically correct Liberal city in America.

Our Police Chief was Black, our School Superintendent was Black, our mayor was a foul mouthed Socialist female tavern owner, and, of course, DePreist was Black.

Eventually, our Police Chief would prove himself moderately incompetent and be replaced - by whom else - one of America's first female Police Chiefs.

James DePreist took an old standard of the concert repertoire and got my attention. I haven't listened to Beethoven's 3rd quite the same since.

I guess that's what conductors, clever ones, are paid to do.

My wife and I were just remembering that night from years ago. It was a good time.
