On the way home tonight, for some reason, I was
News director.
And just at that moment the newest Sonic radio commercial played on the Royals pre-game show. (The displayed Sonic commercial has nothing to do with this post, by the way. I just like it because it starts with a Kansas City reference.)
The Sonic radio commercial I heard was a somewhat amusing riff on oxymorons. Jean jacket, relaxing fuel, etc.
My job title is a contradiction of terms. News director. Bah! I don't direct the news. I have no control over the news.
I'm a news responder.
Most days, I feel like all I've done is respond (and react) to news.
(Everyone knows that if you make a plan for severe weather, it will by-pass us to the north or south. But the second we don't have a plan, tornado warnings will strike without notice. Floods, frogs, plague. A certainty the one time you don't have a plan.)
How I love it!
