Andy Rooney

My wife tells me this blog that I've started, is very Andy Rooneyish. I think I'm flattered? Actually, I aspire to be so recognizable, either by my writing style or in appearance. He's been such a mainstay for so many years, he's iconic. The similarities I see are first, the way he and I look at and perceive things. I'm not a comedian by any stretch, but I have fun asking the questions that aren't obvious, yet should be obvious. I enjoy taking a statement and turning it into a run on sentence that makes no sense, but if thought about long enough, makes perfect sense. And I do enjoy a clever or profound saying and elaborating on it. I pretty much take what's already been done or said, and do it again, but with more words. Some of the differences between Andy and I are really like comparing fraternal twins as opposed to identical twins. I'm old, he's older. I'm a blogger for several days now, he's a TV and radio personality for several years. He has got a college degree in journalism, I know how to spell "journalism". He makes lots of money, I like the color red. See we're a lot alike:) Now, I just need a major TV station to offer me a job (other than janitorial) to launch my career. You know, I would even consider something like QVC. Imagine the fun I could have with that!
