Ask Bob!
"All we are is... Another brick in the wall..." - Pink Floyd - Every morning I like to have two cups of strong coffee while I watch 1/2 an hour of morning news on CNN. Then I have a nice steaming bowl of Kibbles N' Bits micro-waved in milk for two minutes, toped with maple syrup. Good stuff. It has to be REAL MAPLE SYRUP. When I was first married, my wife tried to pass that Aunt Jemima crap on me - no deal, it's gotta be the real deal. <--- building rapport I used to watch local news in the morning but the local news lady always looked like she was hung over, for some reason that bothered me. She's pasty-white with giant rings under her eyes. Maybe she's a fundamentalist and isn't allowed to wear make-up, or maybe she parties a lot with the TV executives and doesn't have to look good and be alert. I don't know. Her sloppy appearance isn't what made me switch to CNN. What really made me turn the channel, were the stupid things she would do off camera. How do I know what she did off camera, you may ask? I'll explain. After the other reporter finishes, the camera would pull away to show both reporters. Then they cut to a commercial. Every time the camera pulled back she'd would be picking at her eyelashes, or she'd have a finger in her ear. She paid so little attention to what was going on, she never really knew when the camera was going to pull back. One time she was filing her fingernails when the camera pans back. Stupid. <--- personal opinion So now I'm watching The Paula Zahn news lady, and last Friday she's interviewing an Israeli representative about Israel not pulling out of Palestine as fast as President Bush wanted them too. He says, "Sharon say's, '...don't worry, we'll pull out in time.'" I don't know about you, but in my experience, every time I said, "...I'll pull out just in time," I never really meant it. Oh, by the way, my wife is gonna have a baby in a month...I'm not sure of the due-date, but I'm pretty sure it's a Thursday. I got the next couple of Thursdays off work and I bought a pacifier, so I'm nice and ready. <--- cheap joke Then The Paula Zahn asks the guy she's interviewing, "Do think Sharon's delay to pull out of Palestine makes the President look impotent?" Then they take to a commercial and it's a commercial about Viagra. Hmmm. I think to myself. The next Monday morning I'm watching the news and The Paula Zahn asks the same question to an American guy. Then they cut to another Viagra commercial. Coincidence? I think not! Looks like to me she's plugging sponsors into the news. Well isn't that nice. I guess this will become the new trend. I can just imagine...
Anyway, I'm sure that's how it'll be in the future, so remember...you heard it
