I just did a Google search on myself for the first time in several years.

My God I’m old.

Also, I’ve done a huge number of things and done them relatively well.

At times, it’s hard to even realize that all of those people are me.

I really don’t have any patience for anything right now. I need to turn this PC off and take a chill pill before bad things happen. It’s one of those nights.

In the meantime, I suppose I did get rather a lot done today, so that’s a good thing. But the big things remain to be done. The big things remain.

I was sitting here not doing much of anything and then one or two people said one or two stupid things and now all of a sudden I’m really, really bothered. B-a-d m-o-o-d.

Sometimes it happens. Someone shoots their mouth off and you just run out of patience. Then you snap at them. Hard.

A CNN anchor just referred in a story to the “mae-yo-ist guerrillas” in “knee-paal.”

I don’t know if she can’t think when the teleprompter is running or just has no idea about anything in history or politics or geography in general, but in any case it doesn’t help the general public when this is the state of our news media.

Okay, let’s be honest. This is the first time she’s ever hear of either term. I can’t decide whether it’s better to have clueless, uneducated newspeople (CNN), blatantly fascist propagandists for newspeople (Fox), or bifold tabloid stars as newspeople (MSNBC).

We need to fund PBS enough to have a national nightly broadcast.
