I shall wear my badge of, uhm, oxymoronism with pride.
First of all, yes, I DO know oxymoronism isn't a word. Or, at least, it wasn't a word until I just made it up. But it was the central theme of my TV piece last night and, as you may recall, also played a part in the snow pictures I posted yesterday.
You mean you haven' read yesterday's entry yet? Well, scroll down and do it. We'll wait.
(imagine a little whistling or thumb twiddling right here while we're waiting).
Okay, so you saw the pictures, right? As I mentioned, I don't like the cold & the snow but even I will admit that what I saw Friday was kinda cool, which made me start to think.
And that, as we all know, can be a dangerous thing.
What came out of my thinking? Well, it was this week's TV spot. And I'll be kind of curious to see what kind of reaction I get to it. Why? Well, it wouldn't surprise me if there were a lot of people out there who consider themselves “Oxymoronic Yoopers”, like I do. In fact, I wouldn't be shocked if MOST people who live in the UP exhibit at least one or two symptoms of that oxymoronism.
I guess we'll find out, at least as soon as people see this--
