PC-speak Update

A listener email read on Buzz Out Loud's podcast #758 (audio starts at about 29:29) introduced me to a new bit of Painfully Politically Correct speech.

From now on, listener Bill asks, we should refer to blind people as non-photon-dependent persons.

I like it, on so many levels. It's the best thing I've heard since Daniel Pinkwater called himself circumferentially challenged.

LOL! Both great, but loved the first. Have a great Independence Day weekend, Brendan.
