I know that I said once a few weeks ago that I would do a daily post, even if no more than a "Hi, I'm not quite dead yet" kind of thing. And yet, I did not for the entire duration of the last week. I guess it just shows absolutely nobody is truly reliable when it really comes down to it.
Especially bloggers. As much as I hate to say it, bloggers are almost as unreliable as *gasp* the mainstream media! Yes, as hard as it might be to believe we're almost as unreliable as say.... Neal Boortz, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'Reilly. You need to keep a few things in mind, however.
Unlike the mainstream media, we bloggers admit that, while many of us do in fact consider ourselves to be reporters of a sort, we are still giving you our opinion with the news in question. Many of the other morons in the mainstream media however do not. They think that just because they are so damn smart and special that what they think must be fact and not opinion since they are the ones thinking it.
And I'm sure that if these statements were to come to their attention, they would be dismissed as the casual ramblings of another arrogant youth. At that I would remind them to read the header of my blog. I believe that statement sums it up rather accurately. One thing I got used to a long time ago is that I do not know everything. I am not as smart as others believe me to be. I am smart enough to realize that I will never know everything I should or everything I would like to.
I do, however, know one immutable truth. When it really comes down to it, age does not equate to knowledge or wisdom, nor does youth imply a lack of either. Stupidity is without bounds.
Today I renew my promise. Daily posts...not quite dead yet... blah, blah, blah.
We'll see how long it lasts this time.
