My Favorite Kurds/Words

Certain sentences said by certain people have really rung in my head lately. Yesterday, the Man In Baghdad wrote to me:

“My favorite Kurd just had a hernia.”*

Say it out loud: “My favorite Kurd just had a hernia.”

Feels good, right?

Then, just now, on IM, Non Sequitur (aka Bella) told me about a guy coming into the gallery where she works and asking if it was okay to look around.

“We are not consumers,” he said.

“We Are Not Consumers.”

Feels pretty good too, right?



[* the entire phrase was actually: “But what kind of luck do I have? My favorite Kurd just had a Hernia.”]
