Ok, so I joined the FB revolution.  At first, to stay in touch with family.  Then I did it, I ventured out into the "high school friends" search. 

I found a few old "friends" and a few found me.  Then I watched.  Some are Farmville fanatics, some Mafia Wars mogels.  It's mildly amusing.  I started the weirdly addicting farmville, but my crops always die.  I never know what to post...I hate posting "I'm eating dinner now, wow, BBQ tates good" but I somehow enjoy reading others' drivel.  I was always a good listener, and now I guess I'm a good reader.  Does anyone really care what I had for dinner????  I don't return heart requests...will I get run over by a truck now? 

Then I saw "her"...yes, the popular senior while I was a freshman.  She was on the pep squad (yes, we called it that back then).  She was beautiful.  She was talented.  She was popular.  Lead in the musical; active in academics; peppy on the pep squad. 

And now...STILL beautiful, thin, gorgeous smile; 480 freakin friends....UGHHHH!!!

Now don't get me wrong...I am not some freak of nature or failure in life.  I have done well for myself...have a great career, loving husband, beautiful daughter....

But I have 53 friends on FB.  Is it just becuase I am picky and don't accept every freakin friend request?  Is it because I wasn't the most popular girl in school? And what the hell does it matter now????  I will just go back to harvesting my corn and horses...but then I realize I don't have the greatest farm, either.  Back to my wine...which by the way I bought at a state-run liquor store and I will drink the entire bottle! 

Shit. FB SUCKS!

The internet happened. It's been a downard spiral ever since.

I am sickened by the trend to push celebrity gossip into every last nook and cranny of news broadcasts. I haven't watched TV for a long time. Well, I'll tune in for a speech or a vote or something like that, just so the whole family can watch.

Even what used to be excellent cable networks, such as Discovery, The Learning Channel, The Science Channel, The History Channel, & History International have ALL been gutted to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

They now show soap operas set in the past on the History channels.

They have movie sneak-peaks on The Science channel disguised as documentaries for those who are foolish enough to fall for them. One example I can think of is "Batman Tech" that came out before the latest Batman movie. The whole premise of the show is whether or not the special effects in Batman could really happen in the real world. I mean really.

The Learning Channel should have it's name changed to The Babies and Decorating Channel. It's basically the Lifetime Channel part 2.

Football sucks for many, many reasons. Far too many to list here, but I will give it my best to cover as many as I possibly can in this brief summarization of the enormous amount of suckage ...

First of all, the football looks like a big freakin turd. An enormous poop. Not only does it look like an oversized chunk of dung, but there is even a guy who has to bend over and pitch it between his legs every turn (which they call a "down"). They could have just called this game "Pitch the Loaf". Everybody wants the turd. That is the name of the game: Grab the turd and run as fast as you can to one end of the field, known as the "End Zone" (not making this stuff up!). It would seem to me that whomever invented this game must have been constipated at the time. The imagery is unmistakable! Am I the only one that has noticed the little rags they carry around tucked into their waistband? Coincidence? I think not!
