The Daily News
1 Have you ever felt that you are just frozen in time?
2 That's how I felt last night.
3 Like, nothing happened.
4 Now, my job is to report the news.
5 But honestly, nothing happened.
6 Oh, the newspaper had an article that some lady had a snowball for thirty years. It's the world's oldest snowball. It, too, was frozen in time.
7 I was thrilled.
8 I went to write the DN, and nothing happened. Well, Coretta Scott King's funeral was warm, lovely, and needed. So that was a little warm. But still. Four churches were set on fire the same day. The frost returned.
9 Oh yeah. There's a fire. Anaheim hills. No one was hurt, thank goodness. And I soon returned, frozen in time at my computer.
10 Some mother was driving her car with her baby on her lap. I'm fundamentally against that. Turns out the mother was Britney Spears. It might as well have been some mother.
11 Ah, people still got murdered. Happens.
12 Someone got hit by a huge rock at that big Maverick surfing thing at Half Moon Bay. Big waves. BIG waves. The surfers were stoked.
13 I went online, and got no e-mails. Just more junk. I think someone might have my password, and I don't even care. My e-mails were frozen.
14 Jay Leno still has a ski-run chin.
15 I somehow am approaching a hundred myspace.com friends. All I did was get a sight. People just trickle in. Yesterday, no callers. Very eerie.
16 I saw my picture. I'm frozen in time.
17 Every time I look at a picture these days, I just think of that. Frozen in time.
18 Everything's weird.
19 All those things that seemed real. Frozen in time.
20 Nothing is real.
21 And nothing to get hung about.
22 Peace.
