YOU KNOW?
October 21, 2023
Remember when people used to intersperse their sentences with like as in you know like that, like I went to the store and like there was no bread and then I went like to the gas station and gas was so expensive like too much you know?
Well somehow like his retreated into the past, and faded into obscurity, fallen to disuse. It has been replaced by a new word or two words. Those two words are you know. A great plethora of speakers use this lazy phrase to assume that the person they are, speaking to somehow, mysteriously intuits, unfathomably groks the meaning. grasps their content, intent, and thrust. Presenters of every dimension, comedians, talk show hosts, guests, podcast people all this ilk use this same crutch you know this and you know that.
I propose that the next time you hear someone say you know that you reply, No I don t know, I don t understand, please embellish, kindly explain please clarify exactly what you were trying to tell me. I am not a mind reader and the words you speak don t necessarily lead me to the correct conclusion that I have fully grasped what you re trying to convey. Understand? Capeesh, Comprendo?
My goodness even that extremely eloquent Rachel Maddow says you know. To accompany her there is Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Seth Meyers. They presumptively, confidently, assuredly assume that you know will accomplish the understanding or the completion of their sentence. It won t.
So, all you a great speaker of the world, renounce delete, discontinue this lazy phrase!

I was in the USN in 1972 and in England. My shipmates and I got into the wrong train car. We didn't notice that we were in first class without the proper tickets. The conductor took our tickets and saw we weren't supposed to be in first class. He stared at us and asked straight away if were French. When we told him we were American he paused and then said, You can stay. God help us if we had been French! Evidently the Brits can keep a grudge. Great book. Will see the movie on Christmas day.

I remember watching an interview with George's dad and he said that when George was in high school and saw a girl being teased about her looks, he would make sure to walk home with her that day to make her feel better. Shows you what a great guy he is and always has been.

So weird. I just had a dream about having a card clipped to my bike spokes. Haven't thought about that since I was a kid. I will be a septogenarian lady in Feb. I had a Schwinn.
Sometimes we attached a balloon instead for a lower pitched sound.

For soccer fans out there There's a football coach called Jose mourinho. Very famous in Europe for his good looks and passionate manners and I always was amazed at how similar George looks to him
He needs to play him in a movie or something

The older Clooney gets the more he looks like his dad. Wow, he looks very, very old. Glad he isn't doing Botox (lines on his forehead and crows feet near his eyes. His neck definitely shows his older age. Batman. Oh that was decades ago, George!

George is always a great filmmaker with a great sense of humor. I saw The Boys in the Boat at a screening last night and the actors Callum Turner and Joel Edgerton said he didn't pull any pranks on set but he always made them laugh.

George once came to Geneva for the Democrats' convention dinner in September 2008, next to my boarding school. When we met, he was very sweet to me, which just shows what a great human being he is.

How come his wife - the alleged human rights lawyer - remains silent on the ongoing gen cide perpetrated against her own people? And why not teach Arabic (her mother tongue) to her children?

The best way to explain santa to kids is that santa was real once but he was a normal man (he was a 4th century bishop) who made gifts for children & now parents carry on his tradition.

I like his movies a lot. There is one memorable movie I enjoyed watching with George as main star and that is The American. In which he plays an assassin. Powerful story.

He'd have made a fine President!
But after the post trump madness, I hope he stays out of politics, he deserves better!
Maybe after trump passes away.
