When you would rather be in another line of business

Same feeling this morning.  Actually, I think it is a reason why I cannot find anything to write about.  The stuff that is worth writing about gathers little attention.  Everything that gathers the attention of the public is this stupid stuff that the media fastens onto every day.

It is almost like try to live on cotton candy as your only food.  If you feed your mind with this cotton candy, you will get sick and die.  Such is the case with our culture.  This garbage is not good for us.

There are a few "nuggets of gold" out there.  The gold metaphor is apt, because this other stuff is junk.  The junk is what you have to "pan out" in order to get the nuggets.  You know what I mean, Vern?

Good thing I don't get paid for this.  The reason is that you have to put up content every single day, and there's some days that it is really hard to do that.

What do you say about a mass murder?  It follows the same pattern that has been followed again and again.  The response is the same old thing, too.

We don't focus on the solutions.  Nope.  It is always the conflict that brings people to the fore.  If you solved this kind of problem, you would get a lot of bored people.

Yes, I have written about conflict versus solutions before.  Not that this gets any attention and serious consideration.  It isn't entertaining enough.  People would rather suffer and die than to actually roll up their sleeves and solve a problem.

Bread  and circuses.  That's the ticket.  You cannot argue against the reality of things.  The reality is that people simply will not focus on how to solve problems like this, or any other problem for that matter.
