Mike Sanders has joined the conversation about anger. In particular, I found the following comment to be quite fascinating:
Much of my blogging about terrorism has been negatively affected by anger. The feelings were “How dare that blogging friend not care about innocent Americans and Israelis getting slaughtered?”. Of course their views are not aimed directly at me and most of the time are the result of believing false information or not thinking things through.
Mike – what an interesting way you have about you. I’ve never been beaten by the carrot that was held out to entice me before.
So much anger – perhaps a little humor, too? I have a really bad joke for you all (and my sincere apologies in advance):
As the woman crawls out of her wrecked car, the local sheriff asks her what happened.
The woman began, “It was the strangest thing! I looked up and saw a tree, so I swerved to the right. Then I saw another tree, so I swerved to left. Then there was another tree, and another and another …”
The sheriff thought for a minute and then said, “Ma’am… I don’t know how to tell you this, but the only thing even resembling a tree on this road for thirty miles is your air freshener.”
BTW Mike – congrats on being the number one Mike in Google. After reading this, I did a Google on myself and found I’m now the number two Shelley in Google.
Guess weblogging is more interesting than Frankenstein.
