Monday 13th 41F, heavy overcast. Promised to brighten later. Up at 6.30 after a difficult night of dreams and crowded memories. I almost got up several times but somehow managed to fall asleep again.
9.00 6C/42F I lit the stove and had a short walk. A shower and then shopping in the car. What an exciting life I lead!
Have you noticed all the click bait, fake news headlines there are? About the objects being shot down over the US and Canada. No pictures means it didn't happen. So they waste a whole page of repetitive textual nonsense. All pure speculation without a morsel of real information. The advertising bureaus/pretend newspapers know even less than we do.
No doubt they are reading each other's editorials. To see if they can use a different form of words which sound like they have a scoop. When they really have bugger all. Except for a bit of name dropping. As different government spokespersons reveal more bugger all. Just to pad out the vapourware news articles. Anything to drag in a few more consumers of their unwanted lies/ads. In an online lies/ads market in free fall. Hoist by their own, ragged petards! And no, that is not a euphemism for journalists in general.
15.00 Safely home from a visit to my English friend. Lunch is over.
18.00 The BBC is monitoring my blog. They finally admitted that they haven't a clue what is going on with these [only recently] high altitude objects. Well, I suppose they couldn't very well stand one of their own reporters in front of the objects [to block the view as is best BBC practice] while they [the objects] are being shot down. So there really was no [BBC] commercial news to be manufactured out of it.
Am I allowed to have toast again? After yesterday's Sunday Dinner saga. Dinner was cheese on toast with halved fresh tomatoes. Followed by tomato soup and a bread roll.
