She Who Must Be Obeyed, Cub Investigative Reporter

My post here about the rumored appearance of Paul McCartney (and ultimate non-appearance) at a local benefit concert for the Laguna Beach landslide, requires an update.

She Who Must Be Obeyed did a little investigative reporting, and exposes (up to a point) the truth in this post. A scam on the sponsor side. Paul McCartney not to blame.

Not fair to children or our hard-working, beloved choral director. It will certainly reinforce the cynicism of early adolescence. Well, just as paranoids can have real enemies, those prone to see hypocrisy everywhere will run into the real thing often enough.

As an aside, the origin of the She Who Must phrase is this book, although I learned the phrase from the inimitable Rumpole.

And, to broaden the family blogoprise still further, my oldest daughter Daniela has launched her own blog, far more literate than mine.
