Time marches on...



And so shall we…nothing new there, hmm...

If you are waiting for me to follow that up with something poignant you may be waiting quite awhile.

Sometimes I feel the need to express the obvious.

Oh come on, you do too!

Every time I look at those quotes and notes you all post I have had a many a déjà vu experience, you too I suspect; ahhhhhh, honesty, what a concept, hmm.

You know it’s true.

Any-who, coming up with ideas for this hacking nightly journalistic, and I use the term loosely, love of mine is sometimes not as simple as you might think.

Many a night I create something from nothing, most nights actually…

Oops did I say/write that out loud.

Never mind.

Love those two simple words due to whom they remind me of… Gilda Radner, a hysterically funny woman who I knew only from afar of her being one of the members of the NRFPTP, not ready for prime time players on SNL, Saturday Night Live, circa 1975-1980; she, had her reign in the beginning of its inception. What a talent!

And this weekend SNL will be celebrating their fortieth anniversary and oddly enough Hubby and I will be celebrating our forty-fourth, wedding anniversary that is!

Gilda Radner died way too young a little over a month before her forty-third birthday back in 1989, from ovarian cancer. For more info, I recommend going to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilda_Radner

Many have issues with Wikipedia but since I am not as bright as the rest of you I find the information gleaned there to be helpful at times, but not always.

I do use many other sources for looking up many interests of mine when posting here most all nights, but for a quickie look-up I can only believe their information to be as accurate as whoever enters or edits it, as everything else written on here the Internet, true.

Which brings up a well regarded newsman, NBC’s Nightly News from New York, Brian Williams, who Hubby and I have been watching for years, we are saddened for his missteps/speaks on the job, but many well respected news people have been in that same situation over these many years. Some facts are easy enough to check and others may not be, and so whenever we watch anything or look up anything there is always the possibility that the info we think or feel is right on target later on can be disproved as accurate. His was a self story elaboration and I do not believe he wasn't out to get an award for bravery or had any other malicious intentions.

In the long run though I do not believe that Brian Williams spoke of his recollections to make us feel this way or that about him but not to be anointed with heroism, perhaps his addition to a harrowing experience that he witnessed or presumed that he did, oh I don’t know...who am I to judge him, really.

Sadly too many depend on these mere humans to be infallible, are you?

No! And neither am I, heaven knows I am definitely NOT!

None of us are.

Over the last several years that I have been doing this blog I found myself finding inaccuracy in our local on air journalist reports and I have caught them in their mistakes, and insisted that they should be better than that, since they get paid and I do not.

But if we all think about their lives as trying so hard to inform us when it is happening nearly immediately, come on how in the world can any of their sources consistently have that absolutely without flaws information available.

If we were able to truly use a time machine or be beamed immediately like in the Star Trek movies/shows to where the event is happening to me that is the only way we would know the absolute happenings occurrence and who, what, why and when and where all of the events.

But since that is not yet available to my knowledge and we most of us do not want to put ourselves in harms way, we will continue to have to rely on whatever reliable sources exist at this time, and they are vast, as we all know!

 

In closing this tonight these are just my thoughts out loud, no different than any other night.

On that note of whatever floats your reliability boat, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you all to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

OR...

NEVER MIND!
