I really do wish I had time to sit down and write this as a news commentary blog. I read and listen to the news every day. I am especially up to date on what is happening in global affairs and in sci/tech. There is so much to be said about these things that I could write all day everyday on them.
Now..
Would anyone read it?
What a career! If I were to ever undertake such an undertaking, I expect I would have to advertise myself. How would that advert read?
"Man attempts to beat others in the head with his opinions"
That would work.
As it is, I can't even begin to comment on the news I read. Firstly because I don't have the time. Secondly because I don't think it would do anyone but myself a bit of good.
Anytime I actually do launch into a rant on this or that, I find that I am talking to no one but myself.
I just choked on some of my pepsi. I had to resist coughing it up all over my desk.
Imagine that!
*type type type* *drink drink drink* *type ty-- ackkkgrlphhh*
*Nathan!? What have you done?!?!* *someone get some paper towls!!*
The price of a ruined keyboard, mouse, and possibly monitor would be removed from my pay and any hope of making rent spoiled.
I'm currently reading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and all the sequels. I'm also listening to the audiobook of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. The result has stuck me with the humor of Douglas Adams and the Jane-Austin-esque dialogue of Susanna Clarke.

In response to your news commentary question: no offense, but I wouldn't read it.
ReplyDeleteand ryn: Don't say that about Wheel of Time! Oh my goodness. Seriously though, there's just this one new author, right?
I think that in most cases you're right about the music, but there are some musicians (mostly in small bands, I guess) who really do need the cd revenue.
About the fashion thing: people like the women in Devil Wears Prada, or people that fit my list? For the latter, definitely. I have a cousin that works in the fashion industry...
