Sometimes people who write columns, blogs and other media stuff tend to cover the same material over and over. If you read an article on artificial intelligence for example, maybe the author figures that since readers have such short memories because of phones and 24-hour news cycles they’ll forget that they read the same article last month. Or maybe even last week.
I know about this because I am one of those writers. For example, this blog entry is about a Fuller Brush lady I saw the other day. I have posted so many Fuller Brush articles over the years, that even I can’t remember what I’ve written. The last one was posted in December 2022. But I have Fuller Brush entries all the way back to February 2007.
Anyway, I saw a Fuller. Brush lady the other day and she was doing her thing – Fuller Brush in hand. But she was also, as seen in the photos, plugged into the world via her smart phone. Maybe she was talking to Fuller Brush Central. However, I think she was talking to other Fuller Brush ladies who soon joined her. One of them was on a bike. I guess she felt that reinforcements were needed to keep the street and sidewalk nice and tidy.
What’s amazing is that my only story pitch beyond showing a Fuller Brush lady is that she is a Fuller Brush lady with a smart phone. It’s a lame pitch, I know. However, the one thing I’m sure of is that within a very short period of time, you’ll forget about this entry, allowing me to post a new Fuller Brush article in the very near future.
