Who knows what good we may do by talking about what goes on in this world? I like to think, like the drip, drip, drip of water on stone, that people who try to puzzle things out together may be of some use to better human practices.
So, last night when Bill O'Reilly appeared genuinely distressed over the hammering U.S. Representative Weiner is getting for behaving so badly in office and was struggling with others over why the Congressman is getting more criticism than Schwarzenegger, I couldn't resist giving him my take on the matter. Although I never expect my e-mail to get a hit at Fox News Channel on the "The Factor" letter segment, I would like to know what somebody thinks of my opinion, so I'm copying the note here:
"Bill, I can't figure how you missed this! It's not a question of who behaved worse. Weiner has brought heavy public criticism upon himself for not resigning from public office. Schwarzenegger isn't on the public dime anymore. What employer in his right mind retains an employee who wastes company time and money on sleezy business practices?"
If nothing else, likely somebody will get a kick out of noting that I misspelled the word "sleazy" - further proof that everyone needs an editor. So, please, everyone, feel free to jump in here any time!
I had no clue how to blog until I got this sweet challenge from my middle kid to jump into a new way to bide my time. I like to imagine that this adventure might be as good for others as it is for me.
