Research, Research, Research

This seems a strange way to start an article, right? You’re probably asking what the hell does he mean by research, research, research. Well, I’m talking to you.

There are so many sources of information today that it can be mind-boggling. Many years ago, when I was given information, either through news sources, teachers, preachers, friends and family, I always validated that shit. I will say it again, I always, despite who gave me the information, looked it up to assess its credibility.

And so please, with any of the tips, suggestions, articles, or ruminations that I might offer or spit out, please validate it. And look, don’t give me some bullshit research from some idiot that runs a blog from his grandmother’s basement and try to pass it off as news. I still believe in the amazing research staff of the NY Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post.

So, research my stuff. Hold me accountable. Okay, that’s all.
