Observation of the Day!
I have a friend who says she watches almost no television. There are days the TV is never turned on. She does not watch the news. She doesn't read the newspaper much. I don't know if that is 100% true, but in asking her certain questions of common everyday news, she doesn't seem know much about an issue; and she is not embarrassed to say so. In an age where you can now get instant celebrity news alerts on your Blackberry, she is a rare person.
When you sort out the news of the day, how much is excessive overstated BS from pundits and opinionated commentators. The important news can be gathered in a five minute newscasts on radio. It is really all you really need to know for the time, and it is just statements of fact.
When you look at the state of regular TV programming, it is easy to dismiss most everything as drival for the masses. A show where people try to jump through a hole in the wall??? PLEEEEZE!
The thing that I do notice about my friend is she is the happiest most positive stress free person I know. Maybe she's on to something.
Have a nice day!
Sam
