I'll tell you why I care about this particular story and why I am glad I heard about it, on T.O.T.V and the Daily Sun....

I often find myself getting complacent while tooling about T.V. in my car, in my cart, on my bike and walking. At least for a short time this story has cured me of the idea that when I am "in the circle", I have the right of way. It was a wake up.

I like to think I learn from all inputs I receive.
  • Due to stories on the cold, that essentially did not impact me, I now know what landscaping I want to install.
  • Due to stories on the fires, that essentially did not impact me, I have made some changes around the house. (Use the correct plug for my golf cart)!
  • Due to the stories on the tornado, that essentially did not impact, I bought a weather radio.

I'd like to think that I am smart enough to determine what news is important to me.

Anything else is a form of censorship.
