Lair if we're keeping score, then we're all chior boys at best!

First of all:
Forgive me reader for I have sinned. I have not written because of a broken computer and although that is not a valid excuse, I cannot type on any other computer but my own. Sorry but it is not happening! (I think better with my own computer... is that wrong?)

Secondly:
Forget that last post about a theme for this blog. Like I can stick to a theme. You are hearing about my life and are going to like it! (haha)

So as you can tell by my title I am upset at people who lie right now, but when I am not. But what is better than people lying to you is catching people in the act. No you say, HA- look what I caught in a writers story. The original line he sent me was:

Gas prices may be down, but money still may be coming up a little short after this draining holiday season. With limited funds, a full course load, and the ever mounting cost of textbooks how can students get all their necessary materials for classes?

I told him that was a lot of opinion so he should change it, maybe get someone to say something along those lines so the opinion can be in a quote. The line I got was:

“With limited funds, a full course load, and the ever mounting cost of textbooks, how can students get all their necessary materials for classes?” said junior [name here].

Because that is not the line that you had in the story that you just added a name onto.
AHH!!!

And then I get another gem of my phone broke so I missed your missed calls for the past three days. What I don't understand is how peoples phones always break when you try to call them and why people never check their messages on landlines! BLAH! I mean my computer is broke and I know I did not update the blog but I was still checking the e-mail and getting work done.

I love these lies, long with the million others I have gotten these past few weeks. Do people actually think that I don't look into things? I mean you are talking to the worlds most overly cynical person ever - of course I am going to check it out. GOSH!
This is why the first rule of journalism is to never trust anything people tell you- if your mom says she loves you, ask her proof.

(happy new years by the way!)
