Please Turn Off All Electronic Devices

>From some movie, one of my daughters frequently quotes, ”Intelligent people do not allow themselves to become bored.”
Waking at 5:00 a.m. this morning, checking the news aggregator, I can confidently say, ”I’m bored.” My intelligence can probably be called into question as well.
Democrats are still frustrated that there are no weapons. Techies are frustrated that someone wants them to pay for music. Other techies are arguing about stuff mere mortals can’t understand. Pro athletes are still getting pay raises with their arrest warrants. Windows still outsells Linux. Bureaucrats still make silly decisions.
Even the sites I read in a category called ”gossip” are lambasting one another. They seem to be trying to run one another out of town, but I can’t be sure. Linkage to this will only bore you and waste valuable time.
The world – as we know it – didn’t change last night. So, good morning.
