So I get a little annoyed at all theose cute little movies which suggest that falling in love somehow solves every little problem in one’s life. Anytime I’ve approached anything in the neighborhood of love, it’s tended to AMPLIFY most of my problems. But then again, I probably wasn’t doing it right. And danged if that wasn’t the understatement of the year…
Unrelated annoyance: TV newscasters with an astonishing lack of familiarity about the areas they serve. One of many examples: on tonight’s KGO news, the Fresno Bee was described as a “Sacramento-area newspaper”. I imagine the people of Fresno (a city of 400,000 people in a metropolitan area of many more) will be a little disturbed to learn that they’re living in a suburb of Sacramento, which 180 miles away. Incidentally, that’s about the same distance as San Francisco, where KGO is located. Maybe by 11:00, the Bee will have become a Bay Area newspaper…
Birthday greetings to Shane. He lives in Kansas City, which may soon be recognized by KGO as an integral part of the greater St. Louis area…
