Notes while watching my carpeting dry (and hoping my killer painful back responds to Internet acquired drugs) while surveying daytime TV:

Children and babies as mouthpieces for those fucking corporations totally piss me off. This is corporate co-pedophilia so that companies with shitty product can somehow convince us to buy their shit. I hate those fucking kids and I hope they die. Sooner rather than later.

I actually watched the European Whatever Soccer Championships....for a while. I cannot figure out why anyone watches the most boring of all competitions in the known universe. Scores of 1-0 and 2-1 are common and not because of some great pitching confounding .350 hitters. This is an ordinary pitcher confounding .110 hitters. Only Left Wing bitter women like this shit, mainly because it confirms their opinion that men can't do shit, and the proof is soccer.

Sports in general There is no network catastrophe quite like a slaughter in any sport, and aside from the non spectacle of the Celtic liquidation of the over rated Lakers the remaining sports stank; baseball games between teams nobody cares about were as uninteresting as a holocaust without Jews.

Obama is boring. McCain is boring. High gas prices are not boring.

The complete feminization of TV news has resulted in the trivial becoming the feature. Breast cancer, ovulation problems (with a hint that the men are the cause), violence against children somewhere in the world are always the only big story, excepting greying hair. Then there is the ever scary Public Schools, place where the upper class news people don't send their kids anyway. "Oh my God, the Schools," are a mainstay without any context whatsoever that the schools are just "aawwwful." Hint ladies: absentee parents too busy making big TV money to do anything other than farm their brats out to "magnet" public schools, alcoholic and criminal parents too busy getting the next fix to care, and shitty teachers remaining in classrooms just might be some of the reasons, but to mention them is to blame women and we don't want to do that. Oh, and then there are gasoline prices---always the fault of the "politicians; the oil companies; the "speculators" without a shred of actual data---er um, but "you know who" will fix things. I will post at length about the much talked about umpteen million acres the horrible oil companies have leases on but won't drill later on, needless to say the entire statement goes unchallenged by Bimbo Vision news.

Ethanol: if you doubt that it's a welfare scheme for the fat cats, all you need to do is watch TV commercials running endlessly during sports telecasts. An almost unending series of bogus commercials featuring "farmers" (of which there may be six left in the country, the rest of the farms being owned by corporations who are also grain processors), "families" like you and me, and the ever present "children." Everything is covered except the obscenity of the subsidies paid to the sponsors of these commercials, the shortcomings of the ethanol as fuel, and the lie that Brazil runs their vehicles on ethanol--a total lie. The percent of ethanol per gallon of gasoline in Brazil has been reduced to 20% due to the "unreliability" of sugar as the source---sugar requires monsoon like rainfall and is suseptical to crop failure when the rainfall figures drop under 20 inches. Yet sugar is vastly superior to corn as an ethanol source. McCain is incapable of campaigning on this issue, the Republicans are both too stupid and uncaring to say anything, and our trusted media will look to Obama without questions.

I'm too stoned to continue......
