For the 1 person who reads my blog (Hi M), I know you have been wondering when I would spew out something new.
I am amazed at all the people who can find the time to spew their thoughts on a regular basis into blogs, facebook, twitter, etc.
I am at my computer for most of the day, yet have to make a real effort to spend a few minutes typing some thoughts in here.
I really want to write a piece about "out of context". The Republican convention really got me thinking about that one, when they theme an entire session around "We Built It". This theme came from a snippet of a speech by President Obama, in which the Republican machine took part of what he was talking about out of the speech's context. Thus totally altering the original message of the speech.
I think I could do a nice piece about gun control, because I know that the bit about "the right to bear arms" is taken out of the full context it has in the constitution... however, I need to actually read the amendment to make sure I get my facts straight.
Ah well, where did the time go... I still have to finish my expense report, eat dinner, and get ready for a scout pack meeting, all in the next 90 mins.

Who knows where the time goes ironically is a brilliant song by Sandy Denny which can be found on You Tube. Nina Simone did her fabulous version as well and that is on You Tube too.
ReplyDeleteMake the time to listen to this one.
The time goes well by the way.
