Tabloid Journalism
Martians are coming! (It must be true: I saw it on a #hash tag on Twitter.) Here we are: the 21st Century; and somehow people are still buying tabloid sensationalism and gossip, most of which is probably plunked out in … Continue reading

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE
Writing a blog takes some guts: we ought to have a bead on things (in some realm or another). Even a one-minute blog like mine should have a semblance of reason. (Frankly, the best bloggers are like Mr. Ed, … Continue reading
The Jetsons
This week my husband went to see the doctor. On TV. I’m not kidding: his physical exam was done via television. So yeah, he “saw” the doctor, who happened to be 2,000 miles away; and yesterday his test results arrived … Continue reading

At our square dancing graduation I presented a homemade card with a poem. I expected a few ooh’s and ahh’s at making rhymes. Little did I know, however, I may as well have sent out an A.P.B.: She knows how … Continue reading
‘Got Gas?
Unless there’s a flammable tanker blocking ingress and egress, I usually buy gasoline on Wednesdays. The lines are shorter, and I don’t end up heading out someplace on the weekend only to find I have to stop for gas. An … Continue reading
Tasteless Television
There’s a reason it was cancelled after the first season; The Jetson’s was quite possibly the stinkiest cartoon ever. Hanna-Barbera cranked it out after success with its polar opposite, The Flintstones—but The Jetsons tanked. Its only redeeming trait was push-button … Continue reading
