Politics, Journalims and other stuff

I was a journalism major. I had the best. I mean THE best teachers and instructors and mentors. I got a taste for local news and that in the end was were I wanted to stay. But things happen.
But you have to have the facts. Check your facts and recheck your facts and check them one more time. Too often people give interviews and feel that the story wasnt told as they expected. Sometimes you have to know where they reporter might be going with the story, choose your words carefully before you comment and give them your phone number ALWAYS and encourage them to call you if they have any questions. A good journalist will ask for it anyway. Sorry Val you did not encounter what I would call a good journalist.

On that note. Ed Bradly passed away today. I always liked him and his style of journalims. He will be missed.

So we Dem's are taking over. I must say my life is always better when Dems are in the house! It's a control thing. I am a control freak...yet I control nothing. This hit me in the head again this week. I could write on this at length. I pretend to have all under control but it's just under the rug. Dying. Not being taken care of. It leaves me at the mercy of others and I hate that. I try my best to handle it all and believe you me there is lots to handle around here and when I give it to you to handle you drop it and piss me off. So I'll just do it. Right? At what cost? That you feel left out? That I mess it up?
I dont know I dont know. What I dont like only I can change. I am done bitching about all the things I dont like it's time to change them. And if you're sick of reading, hearing about all the change just get up and do it already...well I know I think major changes take time right? Not a cop out I swear. Just careful planning. The powers that be always have questions always sit up road blocks and I always have to be ready to run them down.
