Let’s Examine The Evidence

By Jim Lynch on Apr 5, 2006 in Blogs and blogging, Humor

I’m sure this controversy will be hitting the blogosphere any time now. So, I’ve decided to take this proactive step and lay out the evidence ahead of time.

This blogger is a fifty year old man. Fifty! Imagine that, someone who was born during the Eisenhower administration claims to have enough technical savvy to use the internet, send emails, and is arrogant enough to express his opinions. Outrageous.

Of course there is the time issue. He has a full time job, a new Travel Agency venture, and is responsible for five single digit kids. Let’s examine his non-blogging day:

4:30am — Make sure the school clothes are in the dryer and that the coffee is brewing
7:00am — Get the three oldest up, in the bathtub, dressed, fed, and ready for school
7:50am — Those three are shooed out the door and then it’s time to get the two year old ready for daycare.
8:30am — Take the baby to daycare and come home to get ready for work
9:00am — A full day at the regular job
4:00pm — Come home to a house full of kids, get the three oldest doing their homework
5:00pm or 5:30pm or 6:00pm or whenever — Make and serve supper for five
8:00pm — Start getting the youngest ready for bed
8:30pm — Start getting the other four ready for bed. Put the baby back in bed
9:00pm — Yell at all of them, telling them they better go to sleep. Put the baby back in bed
9:30pm — Begin (hollow) threats. Give prayer of thanks for the baby finally going to sleep.
10:00pm — Fix own supper. Watch dvr’ed 24 that you couldn’t watch at 9 because of trying to get the kiddies to sleep
10:15pm — Finish eating. Fall asleep watching tv
11:00pm — Wake up on the couch. Get up and do the dishes that should have been done during the first commercial break
lather, rinse, repeat

With a schedule like that we’re supposed to believe that he’s managed 1054 posts in a little under a year. Why that’s about three a day! Yeah right.

No background in journalism. Armed with nothing but his opinions. And we’re supposed to believe that he writes his own posts??? That’s almost as unbelievable as this.

Moonbats are idiots.

Hey! Watch what you say about 50 year olds not be technically savvy! (okay, now where did I put that carbon paper?)

Heh. I’ll show all of those young whipper-snappers — I can even program the dvr!

Well done you!!!!

I am exhausted just listening to that schedule.

I notice though there is a rather conspicuous gap between 4.30 am and 7am. and as a law professor and a learned time-waster myself, (I have time to scrutinize other people’s itineraries in great detail) I would like to, nay, I demand to know precisely what it is that you do in that time?

I mean really, can these people get a life of their own please.

Alexandra,

Why, that’s when I get the vast number of posts written and a whole lot of blog/news reading. The only other times I can post are 1)when I’m supposed to be working (like now) 2)while the kiddies are eating dinner or 3)when they all settle down.
