Sundays are almost always a vessel for supplying me with loads of information - some useful and some useless. Sundays often put me in contact with a large pool of people as well as provide me with the Sunday newspaper and its expanded assortment of sections and articles. I have not been disappointed today!
From the morning, at my place of worship:
Elderly Mrs. Magillacuddy (not her true name) had surgery to remove six feet of her intestine. She's feeling much better but did you know that there is how many feet of intestine in the body? Not useful, not useless......TMI.....too much information.
Hymnals are still valued tools of worship, especially when the electric screen refuses to slide down. Useful.
Babies really do not like water sprinkled on their heads during baptism. Useful.
From the newspaper:
Writing has been discovered on the Shroud of Turin. Useless. Besides, it probably says made in Hong Kong.
Italian museum finds Galileo's missing fingers and tooth, which will go on display. Useless, disgusting and TMI.
200 Web sites use English to spread terrorism's message. Insulting!
Fur sale to begin on Thanksgiving Day. Useless.
My favorite, from this weekend, on Public Radio's "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me":
The name of Sarah Palin's next book: Going Away
I hope that all of the information that you glean from sources this coming week is either useful, humorous, or uplifting!
