Often I think we get a bit numb to the degree to which the whole "political correctness" thing gets wrapped up, in subtle ways, with the things around us. Of course living here in the northeast, that nonsense flows down from the very top, starting with our politicians and pervading the stuff you see on TV, hear on the radio, read in the papers, etc. So it is refreshing when you see someone who either has not been infected, or simply doesn't care. I find it particularly satisfying when it comes from some corner of the government, who you know would get smacked on the head if they were operating out of the great state of Massachusetts. So I had to smile when I stumbled upon this cute offering for kids, from the Arkansas Post National Memorial Park, a division of the US Department of the interior.
Never in Mass!
