A DAY TO BE SKEPTICAL!

         A DAY TO BE SKEPTICAL!             

     You may find this hard to believe but
January 13th is "International Skeptic's
Day!"
      I already wonder if this unusual day
is really observed around the world. Or
along the world for those who question
whether the earth is truly round.
      I have been a skeptic for many
years. Remember, my role as a news
reporter frequently had me asking
questions to,and hearing answers from,
people in politics.
        Of course there's nothing wrong
with some skepticism. If more people
were skeptics far fewer would have
bought that extended car warranty 

or sent their social security number to

that fellow in Africa who needs it to

unlock your inheritance from some 

uncle you never knew you had. Or

bought the Brooklyn Bridge!
          So celebrate by raising an
eyebrow when you're given "the
facts" by anyone today and don't
hesitate to carry an umbrella if the
forecaster is promising sunshine!
           Hope I can resell that bridge
to somebody and that all your NEWS
is good!
