HATE the Bachelor

This is the angry anti-fan mail I sent them: I think its DISGUSTING that you all had Jason break up with Melissa on TV. Its understandable that he changes his mind. What is not ok is that the people in charge of creating The Bachelor had him break up with her on television. That is [...]

The final episode of Late Night with ConAn O BRIen!

Wow, I only watched it because it was the first show when I clicked on Hulu (where you can legally watch online TV and movies for free.) I thought I wasn’t a fan of Conan, but I’m at least a temporary fan after watching the final episode. I LOVE love love the old fashioned baseball [...]

I’m a little afraid when I walk around my nice neighborhood

Warning to my gentle readers: lots of swearing. Wow, I just learned something about myself today, which kind of sucks. Well, I learned that I don’t want to acknowledge something that kind of sucks. With all the in-your-face violence that happens on TV and on the news, and, has happened in my life, you would think that [...]

Do you like to read or do something else while you are working out?

I think it’s better to be mentally focused on working out when you work out. Doing something else to distract yourself from working out reminds me of taking vocabulary courses instead of reading books. When you do that, you are missing the experience of the activity, to get to the side effect. Of course, It [...]

oops, I did it again: watching The Bachelorette

I told you I wasn’t going to do it, but then, one lonely night, I tuned in to the Bachelorette. I didn’t like the first episode. I thought the guys were lame. But, now that I’ve watched the second episode, I’m definately hooked. I just like DeAnna. She is really obviously looking for true love. [...]

Cowards and Fools

I have watched several seasons of that very stupid show that I should never watch again, The Bachelor. Here’s what I’ve noticed: the guy follows his heart up until the last 2 or 3 women. Then he starts to freak out. He gets scared of making a mistake. And do you what he does then?? [...]

Much Love: This week shows why I love The Bachelor

Ok, when I started watching The Bachelor at the beginning of the season, I’m like, why am I watching this? And every time I watch, I feel like a sick, sick puppy who is only ingraining bad, bad ideas from this culture more firmly in my head. But then comes this one redeeming week. So, [...]

Do you watch The Bachelor?

It’s a horrible, horrible show and I’m sure it rots my brain. It’s so wrong and bad that tonight it only seemed right to eat bad, greasy fries while I watched it (on You Tube). Next I’m going to the store to buy some whoppers to eat while I continue my bad fest! Yeah! If [...]

Smart Fins

Wow, this is blowing my academic mind: High-school students here rarely get more than a half-hour of homework a night. They have no school uniforms, no honor societies, no valedictorians, no tardy bells and no classes for the gifted. There is little standardized testing, few parents agonize over college and kids don’t start school until [...]

My mommy is magical

She says, I’ve just come to a new opinion on Capital Punishment – I am now formally against it.   What did that – well, we saw a Miss Marple mystery on tv… Read what else she has written about becoming enlightened over at her blog Yak’s Place. Related posts Poems for all seasons (1) You [...]
