FRIDAY FAVOURITES

Phil reminded me of this person this morning.  He was listening to one of those radio stations where they play oldies and he heard this one by Stan Freberg.  I am not sure if any of you has ever heard of Freberg but he did some very funny stuff.  This was made back in 1957 and I hadn't realised political correctness had begun way back then.

There is quite a lot of Stan Freberg to be found on YouTube which is where I find everything I post on my Friday Favourites.  I hope you will listen through this and have a laugh along with me.

    1. Exactly!! They put this together so well to to point of ridiculing political correctness.

    Truth be told, political correctness began at the same time as the concept of 'political' life (the Greeks have a few things to take responsibility for!)... and there have always been 'monitors'; the beauty of this little snippet is that it demonstrates that there have always been those who have taken their sense of ethics and morality to an extreme, becoming every bit the blot they are trying to erase! Fun Friday foray Mimsie! YAM xx

    1. I suppose it has always been there but I feel the Western world has increased it to the extent of being over the top. I still like it when a gentleman opens a door for me.
      Glad you enjoyed Friday Favourites this week Yamini. xx
