How Do They Know Before They Know?

My uncanny ability to make things up is finally putting me in good stead (whatever that means).

My wife thinks that one of life’s greatest pleasures is the Morning Newspaper. The other day she asked me to stop and buy the Sunday Morning Newspaper on Saturday Night.

As I handed over my $2 I found myself wondering about how was it possible to buy the Sunday News on Saturday Night? At that moment it hit me like a ton of bricks ... They Make It Up!

I said to myself, “Self, that’s what you do. You have been writing your Foolishness…Or Is It? blog for years. Every time you issue a posting, you make things up” … Or do you?

I called my local paper to offer my services as a News Fabricator of Saturday Night Sunday News and they said they were about to call me and offer me that very same position. They said they had heard of me and had the highest respect for my ability to come up with facts before the facts have, in fact, become facts.

If all goes well this may be the beginning of the end of Foolishness…Or Is It?. In the future I just may be too busy for such silliness… Or will I?

Would I kid u?
