What kind of person reads
this Blog? Research tells us that they
are sophisticated, worldly, serious, but not without a hint of whimsy.
They are people on the go, young and old
alike, some with hidden agendas, others with agendas folded and sticking slightly
out of their pocket. These are people
thirsty for knowledge, but not useful knowledge.
The readers of this Blog know the value of a
$3.00 dustpan, but some other things, not so much. Like for instance - the value of a two-bit
haircut.
Studies indicate that some readers quickly skim, searching,
hoping to stumble across some bit of wisdom, some nugget of truth that will
mentally free them, if only momentarily, from that high-pitched noise coming
from the television or the refrigerator, they’re not sure which but its driving
them buggy.
Others read slowly, moving their lips as they do. They hope to glean a modicum of sanity from
an otherwise sanity-less kind of thing.
These are the same people who, when ordering a crab sandwich, seem
surprised it doesn’t come with cheese.
Had they bothered to read the fine print at the bottom of the menu they
would have seen that cheese was listed as an option and costs about as much as
a quarter of a dustpan.
The rest of you, and you know who you are, enjoy coming to this Blog but you never read it. You
file it away in some electronic folder that you plan to get to “Some day”.
You still haven’t organized your closet and
the backseat of your car is a mess. Oh sure,
you casually mention Zobostic to impress your friends but secretly hope there
isn’t going to be a test.
