I’m not one of those 24/7 news jamokes.
I still like to go to the newsstand and grab the papers. The smell of print along with holding a paper doesn’t exist much any longer.
I read the paper and I watch the half hour local news and the half hour network news.
The network news is on for thirty minutes. Take out the eight minutes of pharmaceutical commercials and you’re left with twenty two minutes of news.
Twenty one minutes that captures the shitshow of a world. Then that last minute is saved for the “Feel Good Story.”
ABC, CBS and NBC give you all the bad news around us, but then they hang you out with a last minute act of kindness.
Just take a minute to think how much worse the world would be if we didn’t have that one act of kindness to get us through?
My oldman was a kind person. He treated the night clerk at White Hen like he was the President of The Chicago and Northwestern Railroad.
BUTT….
…. If you didn’t use your directional when making a turn…
…he would call you a Cock Sucker for the world to hear.
So my dad was the complete opposite of Tom Brokaw and Dan Rathers.
He was kind and promoted love for twenty nine minutes, but that last minute he would build you a new asshole if you didn’t hold his standards…
It’s tough to be kind… I’m sure Mother Therese had moments where she could be a bitch!
Anyway…… Go buy yourself a COFFEE CAKE today and drop off a COFFEE CAKE with someone dear to you…..
