  • My Concern And Distaste Over Sentences Written Entirely In Lower-Case Letters Potentially Becoming The Norm

    January 29th, 2020

    Not only do I, personally not sentences written entirely in Lower-Case letters becoming the norm; I am also very concerned about that.

    Where have the rules about basic grammar skills gone?

    People, get a clue and utilize Upper-Case letters whenever and wherever appropriate.

  • The Death Of Founding PBS News Hour Anchor Jim Lehrer

    January 23rd, 2020

    I am very saddened by the loss of founding PBS News Hour anchor Jim Lehrer.

    Lehrer, along with Robert MacNeil, a Canadian who is still living (as of the time of writing this post), and is also a novelist; had begun co-anchoring the Newscast in 1975. And ever since then, to this very day; the PBS News Hour has served as a non corporate-influenced Evening Newscast alternative to the 3 networks’ (CBS, ABC, and NBC) Evening Newscasts.

    The Newscast was originally solely anchored by MacNeil and titled the Robert MacNeil Report, then MacNeil/Lehrer Report once Jim Lehrer came on board, then the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour, then the NewsHour With Jim Lehrer; and finally, the PBS News Hour upon Lehrer’s retirement in 2011.

    I still remember very well the theme for the PBS News Hour that was composed by Bernard Hoffer and used on the newscast until 2006; and this original musical theme is my favorite to date out of all the musical themes this newscast has ever had since its inception in 1975.

  • May The Modern Gray Home Interior Décor Go Away For Good

    January 23rd, 2020

    May the modern Gray home interior décor go away for good.

    And may Beige, Brown, or any other color on the palette; as well as padded furniture with normal upholstery, and hardwood furniture made of normal wood and consisting of normal finishes of Oak, Cherry, and Maple wood.

    Please see this earlier post regarding my distaste in modern home interior décor, and my fondness for traditional interior décor:

  • Tennis Player Barbara Jordan

    January 21st, 2020

    I praise the author of this newspaper article who wrote about Tennis Player Barbara Jordan’s win of the 1979 Australian Open Tennis event.

    The better days of Tennis, when Tennis was not overproduced and a high-dollar affair, was a jolly good event to spectate, and when the Sports Departments of the three networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) would periodically televise Tennis events.

    As of the present day, as of the time of writing this post; only NBC televises the French Open Tennis event, as they have done every year since 1992.

  • Another Trend That Has Been Present Since The Beginning Of The 21st Century-Documenting One Selves’ Life With A Webcam

    January 21st, 2020

    I also can not stand another trend that has been persistent since the beginning of the 21st Century, documenting one selves’ life on the internet by the way of a Webcam.

    Though, I do believe this particular trend has died down since the early 2010’s.

    All I have to say is get a life and utilize common sense, people.

  • Indolent Teenagers And Their Internet-Based Dare Tactics

    January 21st, 2020

    I can not stand the internet-based dare tactics of indolent teenagers that have existed since the beginning of the 21st Century, such as those so-called “Tasks” that were popular amongst teens in the mid-late 2000’s:

    And the dare tactic where teenagers were dared to ingest laundry detergent:

    Stupid people believing just about anything that they see or hear on the internet.

    As we all know, life was better during the pre-internet era; during the 1970’s, 1980’s, and the early 1990’s.

  • Episode Of The BBC Television Program Titled “Tomorrow’s World” From 1989 About What Life Will Be Like In The Year 2020

    January 19th, 2020

    An episode of the BBC Television programme titled “Tomorrow’s World’ from 1989 about what life will be like in the year 2020.

    Not only is this particular episode from a better time than the present and the more recent past, but I find the presents on this Television show to be correct.

    I actually feel the same way these presenters did in 1989, feeling like we have literally traveled on a time warp to the year 2020.

    The Television programme titled “Tomorrow’s World” ran from 1965-2003, enjoying a 38 year run.

  • The Recently-Introduced Font Styles That Are Sweeping Across The Web And Television Broadcasts Are Causing A Great Amount Of Anxiety On My Part

    January 18th, 2020

    The recently-introduced styles of font (as of the time of writing this post) that are sweeping the internet and Television broadcasts like crazy are causing great me a great amount of anxiety on my part.

    I am concerned that traditional fonts such as Aerial, Helvetica, and Times New Roman, for instance; may be no more.

    I would much rather see these fonts in existence for the rest until the day I pass away; just as I already have for my entire 32 years (as of the time of writing this post whether it be on a computer, in print, or on a sign or billboard advertisement out there in the world.

    These recently-introduced styles of font make me feel just as uncomfortable as the recent home interior décor trends (as of the time of writing this post) consisting largely of Gray and Black, padded furniture with strange upholstery designs, and hardwood furniture consisting of Gray-stained furniture and fake patina.

    And just like with the traditional styles of font, I want home interior décor to eternally consist of the traditional color palette with colors other than Black and Gray, padded furniture with normal upholstery designs, and hardwood furniture consisting of traditional Oak, Cherry, and Walnut woods and stains.
