Sorry for not posting anything new for a while, I've just been sitting around doing nothing and thinking about a essay I have to turn in on Wednesday. I have completed it, but I know that the the teacher, I don't want to call him a professor in this case, won't like it because his opinions and all that other English crap will get in the way of his grading. But I don't really care at this point, this essay has been haunting me for a while now and just doing my best and turning it in on time is all I can ask for. A bigger and more important essay has been assigned, and I want to shift my energy to that instead of this dumb causal analysis paper.
In the essay, I'm arguing that the news is too much entertainment-oriented meaning that the news is too sensational. Too much human interest and scandal BS. The kind of stories that really piss me off is missing people, fake kidnappings, feeding tube bullshit that should be more of a family issue than a national covered story, celebrity hook-ups and break-ups, intolerance for opposing political views, and outrage over Janet Jackson's tit popping out while the camera is 400 feet away which means it's pretty damn hard to see it really well. The main point is that this kind of news should be presented on different programs than the network nightly news and 24 hour cable news.
Anyway, I'm tired and I want to go to bed and sleep off all of this thinking about a stupid paper.
By the way I spent 20 of my Best Buy Bucks on the upcoming R. Kelly DVD Trapped In The Closet Chapters 1-12, which is by far the best music video(s) of this year. If you haven't heard or seen it, it's really interesting if you like music with a good storyline.
Good night bloggers, I have enjoyed your comments that don't advertise a web site that I will never go to. Just thought I'd get that point across.
