(Author's note: This was written in September of 2011. . . Fail)
So, here it
is: the explanation of our silence. First, there was the filibuster of the
first post. Then I created a Second post to replace it for the time being.
Then. . . I started working, and just a few weeks ago I posted the “first”
post. Katrina and I haven't really had time to write. Not that many people are
reading this. . . Maybe one. But still, one reader is far better than none.
Here's the
thing, I am going to try to post more (meaning, more often than once a month).
Here is the basic structure I am going probably fall into:
-Awesome
Title
-At least
one phrase in a foreign language ('cause those are cool)
-Something
funny that's happened recently (Give my story telling skills some practice)
-Any
pertinent news about. . . anything.
-Something
cryptic
-Occasional
other stories or writings that I feel inclined to post
-Other
things that I can't think of doing at the moment, just because I haven't done
them yet
Okay, check
list:
-Awesome title? DONE!
-Foreign language? DONE!
-Something funny. . . recent.
Hmmmmm. . . (Author's note from 2014: Kinda failed at being recent.)
Got it. Post
link to article. Adult children's 'bad mothering' lawsuit dismissed:
Courts>> “Emotional distress” alleged due to failure to buy toys, bad
birthday card.
. . . I
thought it was a joke. I'm still have hoping that it is a joke. PLEASE tell me
it's a joke!The 'evidence' against their mother includes a cartoon tomato on a
birthday card, and verbal testimony about curfew times, arguments over the
proper budgeting of, what I call, 'the party dress fund', and telling her then
7 year old boy to buckle his seat belt. . . and they tried to sue her for $50,000!
Um. . . okay. Make of that what you will. This is the subject matter I
would see in humorous fictional news
journal. This is the sort of article I would WRITE for a humorous fictional
news journal.
I think that
covers both something funny, and pertinent news.
“That that is
is that that is not is not is that it” Make sense of that jumble of words by inserting proper punctuation.
Das ist
alles. Aufweitersehn!
