Politics is extraordinarily superfluous...and stupid and ephemeral and worthless, etc. I like hearing about people...living, dead, it doesn't matter, art, literature, science, whatever they were into, and you can include travel, i.e., the sights they saw when then saw them. You have a good voice. I like listening to it. Pick some fascinating people to use it on. Get yourself out of it...except for your voice. We'll figure out who you are by what you say and the way you say it.
I'm a generous guy. It's too bad I don't do money, or I'd give you some. I'm trying to find someone to make money off of my stuff. I don't know how to set it up...or I can't set it up since I don't have a cell phone. Plus, I can't abide the idea of asking for money. I don't even "like" stuff. I like this place, though. They haven't hassled me about anything...so far. I want them to make money off of me but apparently the only way they can is to get a cut of the money I make off the stuff I write. They won't even let me just flat-out give them money. Woe oh woe.
Read Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul from Douglas Adams about the holistic detective agency of Dirk Gently and his MO of following anybody who looks like they know where they are going.
Also look up the manga FLCL, furicuri, another random string of story telling. The expression is onomatopoeia for the sound of confusion and surprise. They have one for just about everything that may or may not have prose for.
Payphone call, early Sixties NYC, a Certain Poet was Heming and Hawing about how the world was devious and full of fake offers. His father counselled, 'Be grateful for all the things you don't want.'
Non-sequitur, eliper(a random French word I happen to open a dictionary to the other day) , flaneuring, FLCL(Japanese onomatopoeia) all good topics in their off key ways.
I hear a voice...floating over the ocean, two oceans in fact...You have, in your way, identified one of the probs with short pieces: strewing non-sequiturs around as if they were explanations or arguments for anything. FLCL you'll have to explain. And where the heck are you now ?
If you didn't notice while working your way down here, a poll has been added to the piece. It is entirely conceivable that YOU have a better idea what I should be doing at this joint than I do.

A generous comment. Character is, of course, where it's at. Thanx

Maxim 5: Too many people know where they're going. Not very many know where they aren't.
