Where are those nattering nabobs of negativism when you need them?

124rolandperkins
Edited: Oct 10, 2009, 1:38 am

To Jim53:

None of the names I submit to this thread is guaranteed to be barf-proof.

I was a 37-year old Negativist when "Ted" Agnew was nominated for VP. (Never felt like much of a "nabob",though, and Iʻm not sure how to "natter".

There was a saying that if Spiro "Ted" Agnewʻs name had been Ted Anagnastopoulos, he could not have been nominated. (The GOP was ready for an "ethnic" first name, but not an ethnic surname on the ticket.) So, if Massachusetts governor John Volpeʻs name had been Giovanni Fox, he COULD have been nominated.

Who Is Silvia?

Who is Silvia? what is she,

That all our swains commend her?

Holy, fair, and wise is she;

The heaven such grace did lend her,

That she might admirèd be.


Is she kind as she is fair?

For beauty lives with kindness.

Love doth to her eyes repair,

To help him of his blindness,

And, being helped, inhabits there.

Then to Silvia let us sing,

That Silvia is excelling;

She excels each mortal thing

Upon the dull earth dwelling:

To her let us garlands bring.
