Nasty nasty nasty...I ignore the term "vinyl" that's it and that's that. We have better things post about!

When I was an avid bike rider I subscribed to a couple of bike magazines. After a few years I noticed that I was just getting the same twelve months of articles recycled but by different authors using different words.
There was always the springtime "get your bike ready for the biking season" article, etc. And you could get pretty much the exact same information just pulling your year old copy.
But for new subscribers it mattered.
Well, hmm....by "bike" do you mean bicycle? Motorcycle? Moped?

I was at the Barnes & Noble today. They have a vinyl display out for the holidays. And a healthy vinyl section in the music dpt. Seems like all of the great records are being reissued. Whether they are from digital sources or the original analog remains to be seen. Talk about a comeback. Vinyl records are the only physical music format with sales growth in the past few years. pretty cool. Of course the placard indicates "Vinyl", as that is the proper terminology , in the colloquial usage, for a multiple quantity of records.

Old fart Archival experts call some antiquated media 'Shellacs'. There is a dude on here calling his cool hand made tie dyed T-shirts 'Tie Dyes'. It's all good with me.

Agonizing reappraisals......
Beatniks in the late fifties called LP's vinyl due to what it is made from.
As a sergeant in the United States Army, I saw myriads of young people pass through the military experience and as myself being an obsessive I noticed their personal behavior.
Black youths in the eighties, that were academically challenged started saying ...."I gots mines !"
Then, during the early ninties many of the young soldiers that came from New England were speaking grammatically incorrect. Given the fact that most of the people from where they grew up were factory workers it was understandable. They were using an S on the end of words to make them plural.
The directors in Hollywood use a vanacular to represent a characters ability so we can identify as to what kind of person they are.
For years, many have been saying that we as a nation have fallen behind other countries academically to even go as far as to refer to the dumbing down of the American culture.
Then as a person that grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area in the late sixties and early seventies, in an area where slang is still used by most that grew up there. Putting an S where it does not belong is not an indicator of being hip....it's an indication of being lazy.
I go to garage sales on a weekly basis and ask if they have any vinyl for sale.....
Many new immigrants that have not learned to speak correctly, or even their children speak incorrectly in both proper terms and when using slang !

Same could be said about emigrants ... ask anyone who speaks the Queen's English about us colonists here in the States and some of the mush that comes out of our mouths ...
This argument is behind my apprehension, but best I can say is, the pendulum swings up and down slowly and pompously, and the circle will cross again inventually, and correctly speakened English will once again plummet to the top, see if it doesn't!

Actually....being stationed in Germany, I had the privilege to visit the UK on many an occasion and the British working class use slang much more than most American inner city dwellers do.
