The Silent and Filled Pauses in Everyday Talk
The piece notes two pause types in conversation silent pauses at sentence ends or thinking moments and filled pauses such as you know uh and umm. It cites a scientist claiming speech is 40 to 50 percent silent and adds filled pauses may add another 40 to 50 percent, leaving little room for meaningful dialogue.
Fragmented mood of changing times and jokes in brief
The note mix sketches social shifts with long hair and liberty, mentions reduced barber and prostitute patronage, Japan’s prosperity, gambling losses, dollar devaluation, and a hint of Kissinger talk. It also includes a birthday greet, pet-keeping chatter, and a whimsy about winter ending early.
