Somewhere along the
way, Rat Fink burrowed a little deeper into his nasty rat hole, allowing the
encroaching sappiness of mid-'60s flower power to pollute every strata of
Americana. Cruddiness gave way to cuteness. Spritely little Trolls with
cotton-candy colored manes replaced Mothers Worry on dashboards, while
wide-eyed kiddies and peace symbols printed on horrendous tie-dyed teeshirts
took sales from meticulously screened and airbrushed Weirdos. Meaningful
slogans like "Eat My Dust" "Irresistible Beast" and
"Wild Child" were buried by more "Make Love, Not War"
bumper stickers than you'd care to shake a stick at! But the Finkworld as we
knew and loved it was not forgotten. Once a Rat Fink, always a Rat Fink. Small
echelons of sloppy, lazy Rat Finks clung on through the dry years.
Brother, you are on FIRE! Thanks for all the great reads.
ReplyDeleteBeen looking forward to finding this somewhere ever since coming across Howie Pyro's post on the Ichiban blog about the (apparently very difficult) process of putting this book together....
