Deuteronomy 6:5
I thought that
after moving to Nebraska in 84’ and immediately clarifying then and since that
I really don’t give a hoot whether the Cornhuskers win or lose games that it
would end the matter so far as I am concerned. Not so, for this is Big Red
Country after all, so I spent hours every Monday being regaled with narrative
of most recent game, practice session, scrimmage, or that some relative of a
present or past Cornhusker had their garage broken into and thieves stole the
BetaMax and 8-Track they’d been saving in hope of a come-back.
To this day, if I
don’t respond in sparkling manner when a Husker win is announced, or go into
depression when loss is bemoaned, I still get smirky looks and snarky remarks
in reaction to my non-caring attitude. Maturation through the years took care
of my feelings of rejection at being an outsider.
But it’s always
something else. Now I’m hearing requests for my opinion on the gaudy yoga pants
controversy that has resulted in hundreds of women parading in public womens’
rights protests. Hopefully it too will go the way of BetaMax and 8-Track,
though even more quickly.
Do you agree? Or
am I straining at gnats while swallowing camels?
