So, here we are again
It's part of the disease that is our hobby
It's one of those, "wouldn't want to hang out with" things
combined with reading just about everything they write
Roch and Fec
Roch and Billy
etc...
Blogging, which can appear pretty stressful all by itself
for me is a stress release from other intensities
Following public corruption the press won't report is fascinating
and infuriating as the for-profit news folks won't step up to the plate
to save advertising revenues and maintaining the ability to feed their families
Going after a crooked local establishment is akin to being resigned
to take a bullet walking out your front door in the morning
Anyone who does it is a little fucked up in the head
Has to be
The folks making the money think what they are doing is normal
like all their friends up the ladder and beside them doing the same thing only different
Been in that crowd as well
It's mostly fun and games via taxation and crony theft
We are mostly loners, which is why writing alongside Billy is a pleasure
Roch likes to use his dissemination machine as a weapon to inflict his way onto others
I like him better while not being a part within his sphere
He writes some great stuff
Most would think the local for profit press would take some chances
considering how poorly paid they are, but they don't overwhelmingly most of the time
Kudos to Jeff Sykes some of the time
That's about it
Shameful what's occurred at the News and Record
They sell souls daily
