So I decided to not watch news for 2 weeks.

Today I went online to see what was happening.

I don't think you missed much of anything. If you did, it'll happen again next week.

[Bud]

Not sure, someone claims the US government is taking over TX!

If it isn't now, it isn't news.

Plenty of olds...

You mean you will stop watching political agenda driven opinion and read it instead?

[Bud]

Bob,

 

Not sure if your comment is directed at me or not.

 

I really find it difficult to find unbiased news in the US.

 

It seems to me that every news source has some slant/agenda.

 

Perhaps the BBC is the least biased source for US news????? Dunno.

 

I'm getting more grouchy as I age.

 

But I rode yesterday and I rode again today. The weather is warm and dry here in S. Illinois and what a pleasure it is to ride with those conditions.

 

Hope you have been having a chance to put in some seat time yourself.

I knew exactly what you meant. Broadcast and cable news is now just opinion. On-line news is also full of danger and don't go near the blogs. Cops have an old saying, "don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see". But even video can be edited for political advantage. (Baltimore for example)

It's good riding weather in and around Reno. Some T-storms going through right now. I have rides planned with the Blue Knights.
