TV or not TV..........

I guess one can't even fucken die without a TV around.  What is wrong with this country ???? Why are there televisions everywhere.  I was thinking about my everyday life and the places I go and there seems to be televisions everywhere.  In any restaurant, retail establishment, doctors office, airport . I can list a million places, but it is probably easier to name a few places where there are no televisions.  Let's see now ???????????  Oh yes.........houses of worship.  Think I might be stumped now.

     TVs are everywhere.  Try getting your hair done , try getting a drink, try picking up a prescription, try getting on a plane, try checking into a hotel, or picking up a rental car, try sitting in a waiting room at any medical office, try going anywhere........I dare you to not find a TV...........I was at a massage parlor and there was a tv in the room there as well. ( so what if they were showing porn.....it still counts as a TV ).

     You know that every van or kid friendly car now has screens in the rear for DVDs.  TV is next. We can watch TV on our smart phones today.  I have recently noticed TVs in lobbies of buildings by the elevators.  In fact, the link below is a great video talking about televisions inside elevators.  I guess I am not as original as I thought I was.
      The picture on top was taken at a funeral home. Why shouldn't a dead person enjoy TV like we seem to ?????

       What is next ?  Will we put TVs inside a coffin ?  Will bathroom stalls start to have TVs there ? After all, you can't go to a gym without a TV being more than 5 feet from you.  Will future homes have built in TVs in all the bathrooms ?  Just looking at reviews from the electronics show in LV this week I know it will only get worse.  The size of TVs are starting to double.  Pretty soon a 100 something inch TV screen will be normal.  The damn televisions probably won't fit thru the doors of some homes.  We all have several TV's in our house.  We all program crap on our DVR's.  God forbid we leave our safe environment and venture outside and not be able to see more TV's wherever we are or wherever we go............I just want to scream.

     I would certainly like to bitch some more about how ridiculous this whole TV thing is, but it's time to go to my TV room and see what's on the tube ???????????????  You would think there would be one TV station solely devoted to showing a test pattern 24/7.  That I would like.

        

Resolutions.........Going...........Going............Gone.................Try Again Next Year

WELL.......We are five days into the New Year and my question is simple.  What New Year's Resolution or Resolutions have you broken already ???????  Tell the truth..........You know that some are out the window and have been for days.

      It is just the same old bull shit each and every year. We promise ourselves that we won't make any resolutions because we know we are going to break them............BUT........what do we do ????? You are correct. We make them anyway.  Oh well, it gives us something to bitch about, tell our friends about, and something we will remember in 2012.   
     I no longer make any new years resolutions because I got tired of bullshitting myself years ago. What is the point ?  I know damn well that I am not going to ever last a full year on anything that I might promise myself, so why even bother.  Time magazine listed the 10 most popular resolutions that I will share with you.  How many have you broken already?????
     #1. lose weight and get fit.......ha ha ha.....that is a joke......#2. Quit smoking....got lucky there because I don't smoke......#3. Learn something new everyday........that might work for a while.  #4. Eat Healthy........right???????  #5 Save money.......right again ?????  #6. Travel to new places......Why do I want to go to new places, when I like the old places so much ????  #7 Be less stressed ????? Does anyone really know me ???  #8 Spend more time with family......That is really great, but why is it that family you want to spend more time with seems to live the furthest from you????? #9. Volunteer....That also sounds good.  Been talking about that for years.....and the big #10. is.........Drink Less...............That doesn't even require an answer.
     I guess I just shot to shit most New  Years Resolutions.........Nothing like being a Debbie
Downer..........

Maybe some nice quotes will cheer you up....."Many people look forward to the New Year for a new start on old habits" ( I think a homeless person I know said that).........or Mark Twain who said "New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls and humbug resolutions.".
     Or Jay Leno who said, "Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average...which means, you have met your New Year's resolution..........Or Oprah Winfrey who said, "Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right."......My favorite is now " Why say or promise something that you really will never do ?". Oh wait.....................Isn't that life 101 ?
     Anyway, in a matter of only a few days, no-one will really give a shit about any new years resolution, or probably even remember what theirs was.. We will all be eating, drinking, going along our merry way without a thought in the world about those useless Resolutions we made ages ago.

Hello 2011..........Forget this crap from last year

     This was one of the most shocking stories of last year. Little 2 year old Ardi Rizal of Indonesia and his two pack a day smoking habit as you can see in this video.  Great parents giving him the things all two year old kids get or need.........   This is just one of the many wonderful and strange stories of last year.  Wow, that seems so distant already.   But thanks again NY Post for bringing some of these to my attention. Your reporting on so many useless bits of information should be praised.
     In  Mexico City, a newborn came crying to life......at her funeral.  The girl had been born prematurely and doctors declared her dead.  The parents heard a noise from the casket and found the girl alive and well........Holy Shit..........Will her parents celebrate her birth or death date ????
     Here  is a good one. Two bumbling gunmen failed in their bid to steal an ATM from a Chicago business because they were too weak to move the machine.The armed men bound the staff with duct tape, but left empty-handed because the 250 pound device was too heavy. If only they had help from a sumo wrestler who walked into a store in Moscow a few months later and picked up a 200 pound ATM machine and walked out with it on his shoulders. The jackass got caught, because a sumo wrestler is easy to spot in Moscow.  How many are there ????

    
   What about Facebook????? Last year, the Israeli army had to call off a West Bank anti-terror raid because a soldier posted its date, time, and location on his home page.  Smart ???

         Let us not forget about Twitter....Watch what you Tweet.  The Library of Congress announced it's keeping a digital archive of every public tweet ever sent by everyone.
       Body Scanners at airports were the talk of the town and got so weird that even the screeners were losing their minds.  One Humiliated agent, screener, whose small penis was revealed to all his colleagues at the Miami International Airport when he did a test run through a full body X-ray machine, allegedly beat one of his co-workers with a nightstick after taking endless abuse.  Rolando Negrin said he just "couldn't take the jokes anymore".   I simply say, "No Big Deal"
     But, if you really want to know about all the crap of 2010.................simply check out some of the archives right here.
