CBS Sunday Morning has always been our favorite show.

We sit down with a cup of tea, the NY Times and Sunday Morning. It normally is a very feel good program, light on politics, low stress. This morning I turn it on and there is HANNITY! On this wonderful program. Needless to say we didn't watch this morning.

I need at least an hour or two a week to relax, away from Fox noise and the alt right!!! PLEASE or I will lose my freaking mind!

Thank you for letting me vent....

I haven't watched since Jane Pauley took over hosting duties. It just isn't the same anymore.

It appears that is the direction they are moving with it. They will lose me fo
r sure if they do, not matter which side they take. I get enough of that during the week.

Listening to 'good news' stories was good for my soul, and stood me well to brace another week of shit news.

But the political jabs to the right are there, sometimes more subtle than not. The Ted Koppel interview was a positive, showing how wacked things have gotten since the Fairness Doctrine went away. It's been kinda fun to watch to see what subtle jabs they're going to make.

Just don't go there in the first place.

Listen to Beethoven, Mahler, R Strauss, Bruch, Mozart, Berg, Rouse,

Wait,,Did I say Rouse?
Here this should make life worth living..

The Rouse FLUTE CONCERTO... Jasmine Choi, flute, Yoel Levi, Conductor and the KBS Orchestra at Seoul Arts Center..
