Don't let Political Correctness triumph!<br /><br />I knew R.B. Clark's nephew (now deceased) in the 1960's. He was a very intelligent, though cynical, character with a biting wit. He told me over a beer in an inner city pub that his uncle reckoned that the wide appeal of the comic was with people frustrated in their lives who gained a buzz from laughing at Boofhead, one person who was clearly less able and successful than themselves. The comic was widely read in the late afternoon Sydney trains.Jack Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12089133.post-37087651318517169652012-03-24T06:55:27.938+10:002012-03-24T06:55:27.938+10:00I always loved Boofhead as a kid, 60 years ago.
No...I always loved Boofhead as a kid, 60 years ago.<br />Now in March 2011 we have a Councillor at Lithgow in trouble for using the word in a council meeting.<br />There is of course the usual conjecture as to who it was made to and this is costing ratepayers a lot of money, money that could be spent on a lot more worthy things.<br />While it is being said it is in the interest of "decorum" in the council meetings, there are plenty of people saying it is really another conflict between two people who dislike one another immensly.<br />BillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12089133.post-30966427516174948832007-04-09T20:14:00.000+10:002007-04-09T20:14:00.000+10:00The front cover of the comic "The Dizzy Doings of ...The front cover of the comic "The Dizzy Doings of Boofhead" No13 shows a 3/4 view of Boofhead's face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12089133.post-1152538932047123472006-07-10T23:42:00.000+10:002006-07-10T23:42:00.000+10:00I can see why it was popular.
