City people love to blog, especially those
in the local media. They're into Twitter, Facebook,
etc. big time. Well, most of them. In the past
I came across many posts from those in the local media
complaining about going to the grocery store
(example) and people coming up to them and
bothering them (viewers). EXCUSE ME? was
my response. That was after I made a mental
note to never bother anyone in the Springfield
media, as they obviously thought they were big
television stars. Just recently I came across a
post by a local media person that thought it
was funny the last time he was at a store -
everyone in line recognized him but the cashier
did not. Everyone but the cashier was chuckling
as the cashier didn't know him from a woodchuck.
GET A GRIP LOCAL MEDIA! Some people watch
other stations (with good reason), some people
don't watch television, and some people just
do not give a flying flip who you are! Now, I know
this must be hard to believe that everyone in
the Ozarks does not think you are a god, but
pretend, just try..... Many of us know people
of far greater importance than the local media,
and we treat them as we would any other person
in our life. One day, not as far off as you think I
might add, you will be able to go to the grocery
store or a restaurant and no one will bother you
and interrupt your precious privacy. Why?
Because no one will care who you are. And all
that is left will be the person you are inside.
Who that person is is up to you...whether you are
an a$$ or a nice person. I don't think there is
much hope left for some of you for the nice person
thing though!
