    Hi Timothy, First of all welcome to FFN. Thank you for your thirty one years of service. That is a long time, where you can truly say, been there and done that. Yet, it true what you say, it isn't way for us to express our feelings, even for those gifted as you; to put pen to paper. As for what you said in today's blog, is so true. Now a days, it's all about overload of sound bytes and graphic images. For the most part, it tends to desensitize people and causes them to expect more the next time around. Take care, brother!
