I am astounded at the number of kids and adults who would rather watch someone else have fun (TV) than create their own by getting out of the house and having an adventure.

On their headstone will they have engraved in Old Gothic:

“I wish I had watched more cable...”?

Sometimes, when I am looking for a program on TV, I see the stuff that is being marketed to young people.

It is embarrassing. I mean, if I was a young person... I'd be embarrassed AND angry to be lumped in with the crowd of abject idiots and losers whose numbers and immeasurable ignorance have made it possible and profitable for anyone to pander THIS DRIVEL...and on THIS scale!

In fact, when I WAS a young person, the same people did the same thing and embarrassed me just as much with THEIR hype and drivel. Only THEY had to manage WITHOUT the expediency of a media tool as direct and attractive as facebook, twitter, etc.
