First, let me backfill things just a bit because the last thing I want to do is pull a RonFournier, wherein I engage in an all-about-me act of superior insufferable sanctimony based on me-me-me because me. I am not here to tell you that my perspective is superior to anyone else’s. What I do want to do, though, is share my perspective because I do think, especially in June, it matters.
As many of you know by now, on March 14 I abruptly quit my media job. Since then, I cancelled my cable and have spent all of my time caring for an ailing wife, who is finally on the road to a full recovery thank you very much. In other words, after nearly a decade of following the news cycle like a degenerate junkie, I spent this Spring in something approximating the Real World.
