The Road Trip

There are some great roadside attractions in this country, if you take a long car trip. We have taken several 5-6000 mile trips and have seen many wonders of America such as the Great Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota. It is a large auditorium completely covered in corn.  And you wondered what those people in South Dakota do for fun. 

The Fear Factor

Well, I have certainly enjoyed the Olympic Games the last two weeks, and like many I have watched a lot more TV than normal.  The USA has faired very well, and who hasn’t become fascinated with the great Michael Phelps, perhaps the greatest Olympian of all time.  Eight gold medals is a feat that may never be surpassed by one single homo sapien.   I am not sure if even Flipper could have won more than eight swimming events. 

The Rest of the Story

I listen to all sorts of radio personalities, from the disgusting debauchery of Howard Stern, to the ultra-fundamentalist Michael Savage of the “Savage Nation.”  Both of these help me get my “mad out,” and they are both inspirations for sermonizing.  Savage is so right-wing he makes Rush Limbaugh look like a dope-smoking-bleeding-heart-flag-burning-draft-dodging-hippie-dippie-crystal wearing Hilary lover.

Sibling Rivalry

Well I am sure that you have heard the breaking political news if you have watched TV at all this last week. Paris has spoken. Paris Hilton, the celebrity thrust into the presidential campaign in an ad by Republican candidate John McCain, issued a rebuttal Tuesday, albeit in a scantily clad, tongue-in-cheek kind of way.

Wrestle Mania

This past Tuesday night we watched at my house what are surely two of the stupidest shows to ever hit television.  And the sad part is, we know they are stupid and we watched them anyway. No Masterpiece Theater at my house.  No CNN, Bravo or the NASA channel.  No Hallmark Hall of Fame. Heck, your IQ drops 10 points just by tuning in these shows.
