I watch the news and look at the ijits all around me and I think, "Life is too short for this nonsense." And it is. It's all a bunch of noise and we have to go to sleep with it and wake up with it and fall to our knees and thank Fate or Heaven that we can go to a job with it, every damn day until we're too old to do it any more, at which point there's no distraction from the din at all.
And for the life of me, I don't know why.
Well, I for one do not watch the TV news. As you say there is too much drama. I am not sticking my head in the sand, but really? I used to think my Father talking back to the TV was somewhat strange but now I get where he was coming from.

ReplyDeleteHave you ever sat back on your haunches and watched a group of primates, chimps or baboons or whatever's available at the zoo in a group and not nappin', for several hours at a stretch?
ReplyDeleteIt becomes apparent. I think the concept I'm after is "legacy code".
Life's a bitch, then you die.
