Sunday Indulgence

For most people, Friday is the Weekday favorite; for me, it is hands done, Sunday Morning!
Jennifer does not understand. But I love to sit in my basement, turn on the TV and watch CBS News Sunday Morning with a nice hot cup of coffee. Ahhhh. Bliss.
I love the variety of tidbits, sort of like a broadcast version of the Sunday paper. It starts with a run down of what's to come on the show for the morning. It covers the headlines, the fine and performing arts, interviews, as well as more in-depth stories from headlines. These stories do not focus on the already known stuff. They go deeper and broader and are just so much more relaxed than the hard-nosed interviews of the typical newscast. They focus on the little known interests of the interviewee. And opinions! Commentators Ben Stein and Nancy Giles deliver their opinions with wit and humor that keeps me begging for more! And I can't leave out Bill Geist doing his human interest stories and Mo Rocca! The whole show just makes me see the world in a much more colorful way. Kind of like looking at the world through a Kaleidoscope. I can see all the different angles of a story or a person or a subject. And it always ends with a nice 60 second clip of a tranquil scene from nature. Ahhh. Nice. My Sunday Morning is just not the same with out CBS Sunday Morning Show!
