I have been writing blog postings for a long time. I put up one blog posting per day, and I am now in my 16th year of doing that. During all that time, I have frequently found myself posting photos with a title along the lines of "1,000 Words." A picture, it is sometimes said, is "worth 1,000 words." You can "Google" the phrase if you think you need to verify how extensively this claim is made.
Essentially, the statement that "a picture is worth 1,000 Words" is a statement that the picture alone is enough. No further explanation is required. I last discussed the "1,000 Words" phenomenon in April of this year, and you can click right here to review that blog posting, which chronicles and links some of my past "1,000 Words" items. Here is the picture that went along with that April blog posting (I really like it):
That picture, I'm thinking, could be an advertisement for Wallace Baine's recent book, Founding Daughter. As for the picture at the top (no commentary, of course, is needed), it comes from a New York Times' opinion column, by a Canadian novelist, Stephen Marche, which is headlined, "The Zombification Of The United States." You can read Marche's column, which I would certainly encourage, by clicking that link, but there's a real message in the photo that accompanied Marche's column (the photo reproduced at the top of this blog posting), and I don't think that any further explanation is required, to make clear its meaning!
