About Everything. Fella says you should say, No! I Want To Know Nothing! 
The Wall Street Journal is not the only one that wants to fill up your entire day. It is the example that just jumped in front of me and prompted me to warn you to be careful about what you sign up for.
They mean well...Or do they? I was just clicking around on my computer and all of a sudden I was looking at the WSJ’s Newsletters & Alerts Offerings. If I had said OK to every one of them I would have covered my days up with more information than I could handle for a long time to come until I figured out how to get out from under their Information Avalanche. You can bet your sweet bippy it would not be easy figure out how to get out.
Be Afraid...Be Very Afraid
Here is an list of what the WSJ offered to me. Don’t be afraid of me like I have warned you to be afraid of them. Just skim through the list and remember, Don’t Subscribe To Anything especially when you are given the opportunity to Subscribe to Everything and then you can get back to reading about Football and the Midterm Elections.
Here is the list. Remember To Skim!...

As you may remember I refer to my blogging as Mind Wandering. Let your Mind Wander with me for a few moments more. If the WSJ’s List of Distractions and Interruptions had been around in years past, great things would not have happened because the make-it-happen people back then would have been too busy to make the things happen. They would have been Notified and Interrupted and Distracted and Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered but they would Not Have Been Productive.
Ø Iron Lungs would be all over the Fruited Plain because Dr. Jonas Salk would never have come up with his Salk Polio Vaccine...
Fella Question of the Day: The Salk Polio Vaccine prevented you from getting Polio. The Vaccine did not cure Polio in people who already had Polio. Did you ever wonder what happened to all those thousands of people already in Iron Lungs? Did they really spend the rest of their lives in those things? I guess they did. Here is an amazing story of one that did...
Ø We would all be tangled up in the strings between 2 spinach cans as we tried to communicate with each other because Alexander Graham Bell would not have been able to concentrate on inventing the Telephone.
Ø We
would all be sitting around our dimly lit family rooms trying to read books
made out of paper because Steve Jobs had been too distracted to invent his
Smartphone 
and Thomas Edison would have been too flabbergasted to invent his Light Bulb 
.
At this point I am tempted to launch into an extended apology for the length of this Blog Posting but I am certain you have had enough of me so I’ll simply say, Please Forgive Me!
Oh yea, don’t forget to not sign up for nunin (Yea, I know that’s a misspelled double negative).
Would I kid u?
