Too Weak to Week Two.

New News. Apart from being absolutely delightful to say, was inexhaustibly interesting. The lecture formed within me, an ultimatum that I can't seem to solve. First: I like to use the internet and I know how useful it is to be able to get my news online but Second: I love the newspaper. I think it's something, like the dinosaurs, that we shouldn't let die out. Newspapers are such a versatile item, for consuming media and news, but also for wrapping fish and chips. Not only that but I would hate to sit down for breakfast and sip on my coffee with an iPad, or at a computer - it's just not gentlemanly. On a digressional note, I found the most wonderful newspaper from 1956 in my school's costume cupboard for the drama department. The articles were so amazingly sincere and cute, it was difficult to read without swelling from nostalgia of a time gone that I never even had a part of. Even the advertising was so innocent. I just don't think we'll get that from the internet.
"Hey do you remember that time, when there was that meme on the internet, and everyone thought it was funny?" - The Future
Nah... it just doesn't seem plausible. Even with these shifts in "Web Iterations". I found the idea of Web 3.0 intriguing, but quite scary at the same time. I want to see the whole range of news items, and pick the ones I want - not have the ones I want to see shoved down my throat and forget the rest. Especially not when it's chosen by a computer that bases it's exclusion because of my internet history. I like to mix things up.

Now the other big point of this lecture: Jelly Beans. Yes, just... yes. Love it. Apparent from being a wonderfully  tasty exercise, this too was an efficient way of getting across the point. I'm not even a huge fan of the sweet palette, but when those Jelly beans were taken away I felt a sense of loss. My rights as a JOUR!111 student have been flouted! I needed them back badly. When the sugar craving section of my brain settled down, it was quite startling that this is actually happening to our news. On one hand, I see why the paywall is necessary, but I always have and always will think of the internet as "The Land of the Free (Stuff)". Another reason, I think newspapers should stick around. If not for us, for our children, and our children's pet dogs. If not the postman, who will man's best friend turn to, to chase? Kony?

Like a poor chef, I'm way out of thyme - so word to your mother.
