It is Corn or Korn... Fall Harvest vs Music Madness




Fall harvest brings the flavour of sweet yellow and white kernels of peaches and cream corn on the cob to our kitchen tables. Needless to say, this is not one of my favorite foods. In general, corn only get’s past my lips when lots of melted butter is applied to the cob, creating flowing rivers of a euphoric substance which makes any healthy artery cringe. Once in a while, I enjoy picking the kernels off the cob, one by one, like entering digits on a keyboard. In general it’s not my food of choice.

There is another Corn out their, perhaps an imposter to this fall vegetable. This Korn, is a group of rockers, music makers (if one can call it that) they travel from city to city attracting a following who would rather listen to this "music" than a good symphony.

The definition of their music is definitely not in my dictionary, no thanks, not even one little “key note” of their “noise” would move me off my couch. Is this evolution or devolution of society? I’ll take fresh Corn any day over Korn!

The Smashing Pumpkins and Korn… what can I say about Fall Harvest! I will take fresh vegetables any day. I mean the ones you can eat!
