When The Fella Sees Something...The Fella Says Something

I have just eaten my lunch. The whole time I was eating my lunch I was watching a TV screen full of Los Angeles Unified School District, Los Angeles City Officials, State of California Officials and Los Angeles County Officials standing behind a podium that was occupied in turn by one of them as they said what they had to say about the Closing of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s Schools today.

Each one of them was saying the same thing as the one before them had said and the one after them was going to say.

So far you are thinking I am being critical for over-reaction or repetition or loitering behind the podium but I am not. What I am blogging about is an important issue I saw on my TV and, as usual, I do not just poke holes in the air with my finger but I am here to propose a Fix.

The Issue/Problem:
  • It appears that the Chief Official for every one of these entities were on my TV screen.
  • By having to appear to speak and stand in support of others who are speaking they are not doing their jobs!
  • Should they not be out chasing the bad guys?
  • Should they not be at, the very least, tweeting words of encouragement in support of their people who are out chasing the bad guys?
  • The Bottom Line: They can’t do their jobs because they are required to be at this podium telling us how they are doing their jobs and how much they care about us and how much they feel our pain.
The Fella Fix:
  • In times like these there ought to be a Federal Bunch of Official Distinguished and Responsible Looking People ready to be flown to any such happening to stand in for the real Official Distinguished and Responsible Looking People who are out doing their jobs.
  • This At The Ready Stand-In Team would be there to give us Folks Back Home confidence that everything is being done by the real Official Distinguished and Responsible Looking People and how much the real Official Distinguished and Responsible Looking People care about us and how much they feel our pain.
  • If they want the Fella to help, I will be glad to go to Dollar Tree and buy them a bunch of Stars for their use on their hats, collars and upper lets (Yea, there were a whole bunch of stars on all of them.)
The Fella’s Sad Closing: We are told that these Officials are the ones in charge of the Los Angeles Unified School District, the Los Angeles Police Department, the State Police Department, the Mayor’s Office, etc. Actually they are not in charge. I’m sorry to say that it appears that the Terrorist, in cahoots with Alexander Graham Bell, are calling the shots.

Can a single phone call cause all this?

Would I kid u?

Bomb scares have been around for generations, fear from terrorist attack in this country is new. Officials have a natural need to get on TV.
