Televison rots our minds! What's on?

If you think about it chances are you will probably think about it differently than I do because you have your own mind with your own line of reasoning. With all that said I think television is the number one problem in America aside from abortion. It's not smoking, heart disease, obesity, murder, drugs or homelessness, nope it's the boob tube(which can be linked to those problems but I wont).

Why do we watch the idiot box?

Well right off the sherwood that tiny little voice that loves to justify things barks in it's well on the contrary tone "we watch the T.V for current events and information on what's happening in the world around us". While I believe this can be a good use of society's mechanical babysitter, I must say ..Phsssbt...(rasp-berries sound)uh..ummm.no, we watch the television primarily for our own self gratifying entertainment.

You might be thinking "well, so what! I watch T.V when I'm bored and/or have nothing to do, I need to be entertained" and what I say to that is EXACTLY!! The tele is the source of what makes us bore easily, it's addictive plots, subplots and unrelenting drama is what causes us to glue two fifths of our senses to it's programming. When we unadhere these senses away from the silver screen we have withdrawl symptoms with strengths relative to the intensity of the addiction. While experiencing these withdrawls we become bored with the wonderful world around us (which is so terrible anyways) and we flip on the glowing parallelogram. Some withdrawls cause us to be so bored that we watch infomercials till three or four o'clock in the morning because we are in such dire need of entertainment.

A very good way of counteracting this problem at least in my opinion is to SHUT IT OFF!! Take a hammer to it's screen, cut it's powercord and throw it out. If you have a bad T.V addiction maybe instead of seeking to entertain yourself, try to entertain someone else. Play charades or Tiddly Winks.....{long pause with a glance at the clock}...ummmm..I have to finish this post later I'm missing something on....Ha,uummm.. on my keychain, yes that's it, my keychain and I must find it.

Ernie the Bald Frog with the Wig

Once upon a time in a swamp in a meadow far away but closer than you think, there lived a bald frog. Now all the frogs in the swamp were very hairy except for this one named Ernie. Ernie was well liked and adored by all his frog friends. He was very self conscience about his baldness even though his friends could care less. So one day Ernie decided to make a wig from dead grass to hide his lack of hair. When all his friends saw him they did not recognize him and were scared at what Ernie looked like. Out of shear fear they started lashing Ernie with their tongues until he found himself on a busy highway. A truck squashed Ernie and he died.
