Shame on me! So little sympathy for the tragic end to one of today's most important problems. Who knows? Maybe Conan will soon be seen in the unemployment line... the same one that we now see 17 million other people in. Welcome, Conan! Can I hold your cashmere sweater so you don't get too hot while waiting to sign up for benefits?
Oh, yes, and let's not forget the "NEW" Kate Gosselin! She just received an all day make-over, adding extensions to that unruly mass of blonde hair she carted around before. Unlike other people getting a make over, this one took eight hours and was filmed. "An Extended Hair Documentary" to be shown on some pathetic TV network for people who have no lives to watch. And, they thinks she's dating already as well. I don't wonder. I know many men who couldn't wait to take on a woman with eight children under the age of ten. And a good time was had by all!
Do I sound a trifle cynical? Sorry. I just have a difficult time thinking so many people actually spend some of the little time they have on earth watching the garbage that permeates our airwaves. Oh, you think, I must do that as well, since I writing about it. Truth be known, I get my gossip from reading the rag mags in the bookstore... Like, there is a difference?
Had to turn in to Dr. Phil yesterday, which was Monday. Every Monday, good ole Dr. Phil has his "Dr. Phil Family" on. These incredible blubbering excuses for intelligent human beings have been being "treated" by Dr. Phil for six, count 'em, six long years! That makes me wonder just how effective is the treatment he's giving these... people? They were a sniveling bunch of crying and whining dorks when it began, and now they're even worse! One of them, who was fifteen when this started, has had two children by two different fathers, married some other guy, got divorced already, and has reached the ripe old age of 21. She's had her children taken away from her and cries with every question that is asked, and is mothered by a woman who cries because the girl is just starting to deal with her issues. That's about all these people do is yell at each other, cry, yell some more, cry a lot more... I'm beginning to think that Dr. Phil pays these idiots to continue to come onto his program because, as he said yesterday, it is "compelling television". Yeah, right. It compelled me to switch the channel and look for something constructive, like "Home Hunter's International" on HGTV. Now that's a good program!
Well, I need to run. The news is on, and I want to watch every minute of the press going over Canan's decision, again, and again, and again!
