We have a neighborhood website on Nextdoor, where we can also read postings from surrounding neighborboods in NE Jackson, Fondren and Belhaven. Recently there was a posting from a millennial wanting to know why there was no "news" about he rash of burglaries at Renaissance , saying they had Googled it and checked Twitter, but there was no news. One of us old folks tried to ask them why they hadn't checked local media like the Clarion Ledger or TV station websites, and they had NO idea what we were talking about.<br /><br />B. I have personally never taken a selfie, except once by accident when trying to figure out how a new phone worked. That one was promptly deleted. I don't "get" the whole concept. Why would I want to take a picture of myself? Generally when I get involved in any sort of activity that involves the word "self", it leads to bad things (e.g., selfishness, self-centeredness, etc.)Ok, so I'm an old f*rt now!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-20140841321927496792017-02-25T22:33:00.779-06:002017-02-25T22:33:00.779-06:00"Too bad the snowflake lady had to wait awhil..."Too bad the snowflake lady had to wait awhile to take the photo that she probably sold.

The point is anybody could take the picture. The ones that had NO RIGHTS were the ones climbing on the columns and taking their pictures from that vantage point. <br /><br />But to the subject at hand, this is a true social justice warrior and he did it in great style.

Still, everybody, including me, does step over the chain. I've never climbed on the columns though and would tell someone who did that they are endangering the place. <br /><br />But, nobody, professional with tripod or 7 year old with Brownie Flash, has any more right to photograph the place than anybody else. Too bad the snowflake lady had to wait awhile to take the photo that she probably sold. And I hope she found a safe space in which to recover.

Everyone else there (all probably 50 and older) just looked at each other and shook our heads. A professional photographer was there with her camera on her tripod waited patiently for them to finish with their mutual admiration society. After 20 minutes she had to nicely ask them if she could get a picture. They were so focused on themselves they had no clue anyone else existed.<br /><br />That pales to this. Much admiration for this young man for raising awareness. Bless him.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-77229779118817065462017-02-25T07:20:59.425-06:002017-02-25T07:20:59.425-06:00Excellent.
