Jaarko Laine… Insane???

This is a short post…
So like Mo, I’ve got dozens and dozens of feeds in my RSS Reader. I try to visit most sites on a daily basis (actually I’m obsessive compulsive, especially when it comes to things like e-mail, checking the blogs stats and reading blogs) and I happened to visit Jaarko Laine who is Insanely Interested in Everything.
Whatever.
So anyway, I’m reading, and here is an interesting post entitled “28 Ideas To Spice Up Your Morning” and I’m thinking – this could be cool, besides the early morning <CENSORED> I’ll pick up some other ideas on how to spend the first 8 to 12 hours of my day.
What a disappointment.
Get this, items #1 to 10 involve you doing one thing. WAKING THE FCUK UP! I mean WTF kind of advice is this? Seriously. I see the word “spice” I’m expecting something… well, spicy.
Number 1 is wake up early. Ummm…yah, in order to spice up your morning… afternoon… evening… you bloody well better wake up!
Number 2 – take a shower. Doesn’t everyone? I guess he assumes that nobody takes showers in the morning. Well, I guess if you blog for a living you could sit around in your birthday suit… which brings us to number 3, which is (you guessed it) GET DRESSED. Damn. Forgot that again. And look, its 5:30pm.
I honestly don’t get this post at all – and I’m no damn conservative nut job either.
- So what if I don’t get up early?
- What if I don’t take a shower?
- What if I want to walk around in my PJs or birthday suit and blog?
I don’t eat breakfast – guess I’m out of the running on 28 Ways to Spice Up MY Morning… besides he 
missed “BRUSH YOUR FRIGGIN TEETH” since we’re getting technical on all the other points…
So do you somehow fail if you don’t follow the steps?
This reminds me of the guy from Second City (the television comedy show from years ago), the spaced out guy who would ask…
What is spaced out? What happens when you’re spaced IN? How does someone get spaced IN? — Just wish I could remember the show and the character.
Wonder if he was spaced out when writing that post… Jaarko, buddy – what were you thinking???
Anyway… Jaarko has some great posts – but 28 Ideas To Spice Up Your Morning is not one of them.
WHAT!! No related posts...

Yeah, they probably are. Everyone gets their information online now anyway. Just found your blog through Google, and I have to say I thoroughly enjoy it. I’ve subscribed and I can’t wait for your next post!

News papers will never completely die. There will never be a time where everyone is connected to the net for their news.

Natural Beef – be nice, don’t spam. Use your real name.
I think that we are headed to a society without newspapers or very limited usage of newspapers.
The BlackBerry, iPhone and other smart phones have all contributed to the demised of the newspaper. The newer netbooks are only adding to this.
I use my BB and Viigo almost exclusively. I subscribe to over 50 news groups from news about East Africa (Tanzania) to Canadian news, science and even Wired. With all that, why would I subscribe or purchase a newspaper?
I still subscribe to some magazines, because they add a different type of value. With magazines, not only am I interested in the stories but the advertising sometimes sparks ideas.
Newspapers are on their way out — if they want to continue to stay relavent, they need to evolve. Technology is making leaps and bounds – newspapers need to follow.

I think the day of the big newspaper corporations has gone. The internet is mobile now you can get it on your phone, at home or there is even wifi hotspots in most cities and cafe’s. I have a 10″ laptop which I take with me everywhere so i can just get an RSS feed of any news I require at the touch of a button or visit a social media site. Even my grandfather who is 72 gets the latest news from the BBC online all before its even gone to print.

I still like to read the newspaper on Sundays, my day off. I don’t think they will die off but newspaper are defiantly on the decline.

I hate the ink on my fingers – but admittedly, it is a nice way to spend a few leisurly hours. But with the cost of netbooks dropping, why not opt for something like that? It’s worth about a years subscription to a newspaper.
There is an idea – newspapers should offer online subscriptions and toss in a netbook to go with it…
