Reverend Rhymey

It's hard not to like this guy, the Rev. Joseph E. Lowery, a titan of the Civil Rights Movement, and one of the founders of the SCLC along with Martin Luther King, Jr.



But I say 'titan' metaphorically: he's really not so very tall and seems to have lost a few inches in his old age. Couldn't someone have gotten him a soapbox to stand on? You can barely see the guy over those giant mics.

And I'd like to add a few things to the end of his speech. If "Black will not be asked to get in back, when Brown can stick around, when Yellow will be mellow, when the Red Man can get ahead, man..." -- can't we also ask Green to stay lean? When will Blue debut? Peach reach? Maroon swoon in the afternoon? Purple nurple?

I've got a 64 pack of crayons with Crayola names, bluish green, greenish blue, for you to do this with.

Yeah...when will purple nurple? I mean, I haven't got all day and if it's going to do it, can it do it soon? Cuz I gotta bus to catch, man!

@Jen - When bluish green passes on the Jewish gene, and I have no idea what rhymes with greenish... all this talk of crayons makes me hungry.

@Nanny Goats - Purple will only nurple when we learn to love it better, which is tough because Purple is such a prick.
