As I Please

Welcome to Barney F. McClelland's Blog. This site was named after George Orwell's column "As I Please" during the Second World War. During that time, he critiqued many of the follies of his time with wit, precision and plain old common sense.I hope to do the same regarding the fashionable nonsense of our day.

"A certain degree of truthfulness was possible so long as it was admitted that a fact may be true even if you don't like it. " - George Orwell
