HALLELUJAH!!!
by Robert A. Nowotny
I have a secret.
This review will reveal a hidden truth that only Lynda and a
dearly departed Basset Hound named Guinness have understood until
now.
O.K. here goes, for whatever it is worth.
I do not live in the Texas Hill Country. I do not reside in
Spring Branch or Comal County or even in Congressional District 21
as a blue voter registration card in my wallet seems to indicate.
No, no and hell no.
I actually live in South Park.
Please understand that I am not referring to the physical town
of the same name, but, rather, to the expanded universe of the
television series which is where I absorb all of my spiritual and
temporal knowledge. I know, I know...most people turn to CNN or
FOX News or The New York Times or My Weekly Reader or even to the
Mormon Church, God forbid. Not me.
And for all these past years I have agonized over why, at the
end of each enlightening episode, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have
used a clip of a Braniff Airlines 727 in the closing credits. To
me, the mysteries of the universe and the heavens held no candle
to this particular enigma, and so it is with unbridled glee that
just a few minutes ago I stumbled upon the answer at Wikipedia
— “the free encyclopedia that anyone can
edit.” The heavy burden has been removed, the knowldege
is upon me and I am a happy man, a happy man, indeed.
