If It Weren’t So Serious It Would Be Silly

For 2 weeks now there has been no news except news about Hamas and Israel.

If we were back to 3 weeks ago the News Media would be going berserk about all kinds of other reported disasters of the day. If there are no disasters on any given day the News Media will make ordinary non-disasters sound like disastrous disasters...

Ø Breaking News!

Ø This Just It!

Ø He Did It Again!

Ø He Didn’t Do It again!

Ø Harry Met Sally!

Ø Harry And Sally Have Split Up!

I think it is quite possible that, if the Exclamation Point had not been invented, the News Media would not have been invented.

It’s what they do. They make ordinary non-disasters sound like disastrous disasters.

After this war is a thing of the past they will go back to shouting at us about all the things that they are paying no never mind to at this time.

The sad part is they will get us to worry about all those unimportant molehills.

Maybe we are the silly ones.

Would I kid u?
