Thought this was interesting.

How many of you have stopped using some of these things like check writing?

The thing that disturbs me most is the honey bee. This is craziness, this whole disappearing act of the bee. I haven't seen one this year, not one.

3. News Magazines and TV News:

I remember when I read Time/Newsweek/U.S. News and Word Report each week, and watched the NBC Nightly News.

With immediate and ubiquitous internet access and the news cycle reduced from 24 hours to 24 minutes, those old media forms of news acquisition seem antiquated to me.

I still watch a local nightly news broadcast, more from habit than need. (And, okay, because KHNL Anchor Stephanie Lum makes even bad news easier to take. :oops: :lol: )

PG, I used to feel the same way about Cindy Sexton, who -- before moving to Chattanooga to do the news there (where she still does it) -- spent several years in Huntsville at WHNT-TV 19 with Bill Markham (who is still her co-anchor in Chattanooga). She was a lot younger then, but she still is pretty enough to make the bad news go down a little easier.
