The Bristol parade is always delightful . But egocentric radio and TV personalities are invariably annoying. On live TV or radio they compete with one another for making the most vacuous " patriotic " comments, the most stale platitudes. To be sure , one must not fail to seem NICE . But being REAL also counts for something. It cannot do without a sharp edge. Anyway " BE KIND ! " . If you are upper middle class in income, you can afford to be NICE -even to your " deplorable " working class neighbors or your drudging employees. But anyway I recommend an old essay by British philosopher Bertrand Russell ; " Nice People ". It does seem that Russell's NICE People generate much nastiness in every day life.
