Topical Considerations
 |
I'm afraid that the pickings were somewhat sparse to say the least.
It is the anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden ... But while he remains a lesson in picking your friends and allies he remains really old news.
Bob Clampett's death went down on this day but Beany and Cecil have been passe for so long they remain in the annals of golden oldies yet not really germane current events.
That poof J Edgar Hoover died on this date too and I am so disturbed by the revelations of his debauchery, thievery, blackmail, and all manner of underhanded doings based on his penchant for maintaining dossiers and diddling his girlfriend Clyde Tolson his memory is simply so much flatus in the wind.
So I just decided to mull over those criteria which make an individual or their memory suitable topical content for a blog entry.
I even went so far to consult various style guides and they were even more hoity toity and missing of the point than the actual regurgitated historical elements I would include otherwise.
So ... nothing and nobody really interested me today.
Therefore, you're stuck with this.
