It's not exactly courageous to be an anti-racist these days a hundred years ago, it was.
Jim Goad
I didn't see much besides Melbourne and a quick trip down to the Twelve Apostles, but all the Aussies I encountered were good-spirited and had a fine sense of humor.

More than most, I believe I'm highly attuned to how heresies eventually become mainstream belief systems and how the vast majority of people who consider themselves 'edgy' are those who only embraced radical ideas LONG after it became safe for them to do so.
Jim Goad
I'm more muscular than I was in my younger days. My biceps and shoulders, especially.
Jim Goad
When I write, I strain with every wizened fibre of my weathered frame to analyze every possible angle of any given subject.

I'm arrogant enough to tell you that I'm smart enough to have scored higher on my Scholastic Aptitude Test than any US president whose SAT score has been made public. I even scored higher than ex-presidential candidate Al Gore, whose SAT score was so high, it was deemed as potentially off-putting to voters.
Jim Goad
the fact that they stole their whole shtick from Woody Guthrie and the coal-mining bards. While the alternative nation meows about personal fashion angst, the Appalachian nation still sings about unemployment.
Jim Goad
It's very odd to observe someone else taking your identity into their own hands and getting it all wrong. I don't think most people will ever get to experience how truly weird it is.
Jim Goad
I'm alive, happier than I've ever been, and I'm doing exactly what I want.
Jim Goad
The idea of karma reeks of primitive religious superstition, so I don't place a lot of stock in it.
Jim Goad
Though your major media kept smacking me upside the head with the word multicultural, you goddamned Australians are the most racist bunch of people I've ever seen in my life.
Jim Goad
I prefer for a woman's most private of areas to have as much hair as Carlos Santana's entire band, head to toe, circa 1972.
