Should be sleepin' like a log.....

It’s four in the a.m. ‘n I dunno why I can’t sleep.....”I should be sleepin’ like a log.....” Beatles circa ‘64 or 5....
Millyrose is asleep.....the dogs are asleep....there’s a few wakeful roosters standing guard t’let ev’ryone know the Bee is being delivered.....’n the Bexar family that delivers the Bee (at least until the 15th) is awake but they’re being paid for it altho prob’ly not overpaid....OK, definitely not overpaid....prob’ly why they’re quitting....I hope they have a better job ‘n it’s not just an example of the Bee’s cost-cutting.....I have some pages (comix) from the Bee of the twenties.....Wow! It was a real newspaper back then....the pages were at least half again as big as t’day....’n the comix.....well, suffice t’say you didn’t need a magnifying glass to read them....’n the colors were fantastic.....even after having been buried beneath layers of carpet for decades....
‘Course, it’s not just the Bee.....newspapers all across the country are going belly up...’n I don’t agree with Bill O’Reilly that it’s their lack of trustworthiness that’s putting them out of bizness (altho it would help if y’could believe them)....no...it’s the internet....if you wanna stay current with the news, y’gotta go online....Heck! Even television can’t keep up with the ‘net....(in the case of network news, I think lack of trust is hurting NBC a lot)....I don’t know how Newspapers are going to make a profit when everyone starts reading them online but the rainforest will prob’ly last a little longer.....other the other hand, a paperless society will undoubtedly find another use for (‘n excuse) for what has been described as the ‘lungs’ of our planet....ah well, as the once believable NY Times proclaimed...”All the news that’s fit to print”.....right up there with, “What’s good for GM is good for the country.”....
Paraphrasing Ol Ben....”Early t’bed ‘n early t’rise makes a man cynical.”
