Even though it didn't contain many (if any) jokes, I really liked this week's TV piece.
First of all, as we've been discussing the past few days, yes, I AM on TV waaaaaay too much. And yes, I share many of these TV pieces waaaaay too much. But there was something about last night's “Life in the 906” that struck me. It's not one of those that came to me in a flash, nor is it one that will make you laugh & laugh. But it struck me for a particular reason.
Because it's true.
The basis of the bit is the one piece of graduation advice I'd give if anyone actually asked me for advice (and as a side note, do you really want ME to give someone advice?). It's a piece of advice I've actually given out before, and it's one that, especially to me, hits close to home. I'm quite loathe to use whatever life experience I've gone through to try and make a point—after all, each person's journey is uniquely theirs—but this one point is, I think, applicable to many young people in the UP.
Whether or not they take the advice is up to them. It worked for me, and I just wanted to put it out there just in case it may—someday--work for them.
And that's all. So here 'tis--
Tomorrow, absolutely nothing at all about me being on TV. Promise!!
