Tuesday Sniping: Zulu Coconut Edition

As you doubtless are aware by now, we tend to rail against the derivative. For example, why bother with Ralph Lauren and all his faux traditionalism (nothing but a veneer to cover up all that striving!) when you can go to the real deal, the Brooks Bros., est. 1818? Same goes for motorcars. The Far Eastern automotive marques should be limited to their Japanese originators, companies like Honda & Toyota. You can imagine how much we despise the Kias and Hyundais (that name! ugh! more examples of faulty Korean misdirection) of the world. So it goes with Caucasian trumpet blowers. Al Hirt forever! Boo on that stupid imitator who did the song about Tijuana. Al Hirt always greater than Halpert! (Like Hyundai, Halpert sounds like a cheap knockoff on the original name — for shame!) Always Al Hirt > Halpert.

So it is on this Fat Tuesday 2013. We celebrate New Orleans and its culture. May it never yield! Al Hirt has the bona fides. Louis & Oliver, the Touissants and the Nevilles, the Marsalises to the current rage Trombone Shorty. Go with The Soul of The Originators and The Original Locations Whence They Came. Rail against the Halpertsz of the World. Tyvm.
