Sun Post's grumpy old man, gets even grumpier

John Hall, editor'n chief of Grumpy'R me (here in SC,
@ Hall Around Town) just set a new grump-record for
Grim & Grimmer Sun Post prose - all in the name of
local entertainment???

Dear John (aka, I'm Grumpy, how'bout you) lives longingly
in 1952 Hollywood, and or 1928 SC - whichever. But from
where ever UnHappy Hall hibernates, he serves up angry
platefuls of ol'John's Grumpy Gumbo, Spurious Slights and
Cheap Shot Delights if you happen to be one of "us" evil
kind local's concerned with open-space, common sense
traffic solutions, or maybe preserving a State Park?

Here's some of today's UnHappy Hall servings-
(excerpted - Jan. 29 - 08 SPN):

"war, war, war, war, war, war, war, protesting, talking tough,
gloom, doom, snake pit, grumpiest, meanest, angriest,
bitterest, worst, selfish, most combative, clods, lost, quit living,
nolonger works, never did, can't stop growth, assorted bugs,
weeds and rodents, NIMBY, stupid yelling, rabid "No" costly
shame, shame, blasted crooks, stupid bums, dirty rats, shame,
snakes, snake pit, too late...have a nice day."

Someone better check what Grumpy John's putting in his
a.m. coffee, because whatever GJ's goop'du'jour, or any jour -
I'll pass.
