Scrolled Right Through


One of my better decisions seems to have been to leave each day's access to FB and Tw to chance, in the form of a virtual roulette wheel.  The virtual marble has been settling in Even=No the last few days but this morning came of 17=Go For It.  I did.  No messages.  Upon scrolling nothing approaching a profound comment.  There were anniversaries to be acknowledged, as August has become the most popular wedding month, my own among them.  The usual political statements.  Pictures of cute animals and cute kids.  The vast wasteland hardly ended with Newton Minow's assessment of early television.  It has been repackaged for our day and for our amusement.

FOMO?  Not at all.
