It has been more than 2 years since my last post. I know all you avid readers were extremely disappointed. However, I am back for as long as I can sustain my current energies and desires for writing this blog. I continue to hate businesses that cheat you including my encounter today at Staples, where they had some inexplicable way of calculating a coupon for a computer program and factoring it into another purchase for a seperate product. We did get it straightened out, but I really do subscribe to the KISS method of things (for those who don't know KISS, it stands for Keep It Simple Stupid).
I heard once that Warren Buffet does not invest with anything which can not be explained in a few minutes. If you have to explain to me who you assessed your coupon with my purchase, i seems that someone is benefitting while someone else is getting screwed.
While I will still point out the fact that ice cream companies are now charging the same price and giving you less and other improprieties, I have come to the conclusion that local news agencies, i.e the local news carries about 5 stories. The circumstances of each story is different, but the basic premise is the same. As a result I will be following WBAL TV news for the forseeable future (see my note above) and count what the headline story is.
My guess is that over the next period of time, the local headlines will be classified into one of the following categories:
Murder, Fire, Weather, and/or Holiday "festivities", local politics. So, we commence with this strange endevour.
