Off The Information Grid

We’ve been off the information grid for nearly a month now. Oh, we’ve still got electricity, the internet, the gas and water and sewer connexions, but a month ago the satellite went away at our command, so no more government and corporate news at 6 p.m. or the Sunday morning food-fights. I do miss Charles Osgood and Gwen Eifel but that’s about it. These are offset by the welcome losses of Judy Woodruff, Brian Williams, and all of Fox News and all of the Spokane happy news. We don’t like being barked at by news purveyors who’ve never been in a street fight or spent a night in jail, whose only claim to the august positions they hold is based on race, sex, or a tawdry journalism degree from some tawdry college/ David Bond , Wallace Street Journal.

Question: Have you ever taken a vacation from the information grid?
