I shall be brief, to-the-point, and righteously indignant.  Here are the facts.

During the TBEX World Travel Blogger Conference last month, I was Vuvuzela-ed in the face.  This is to say, I was brutally accosted by a Vuvuzela-wielding top travel blogger (pictured below).  The experience was very loud.  I still somewhat hear the (South African?) sea in one ear from the instrumental trauma.

Vuvuzela in face

Aargh, the loudness of being Vuvuzela-ed! And by a top travel blogger in a "Cat in the Hat" headpiece, no less!

That is fact one.

Fact two: This evening I was innocently attending a seaside wedding in Rhode Island when, all of a sudden, I was pummeled with a bouquet of bright blue flowers!  Ooh, the indignity!  Ooh, the pollen overload!  It was a fiasco.

Ooh, the pain of being pummeled with flowers! And at a tranquil seaside wedding no less.

Given these two pieces of evidence, do YOU see a pattern emerging?  I certainly do.  Harumph!  Stop Vuvuzela and flower violence today!
