Tonight I watched television news. It's not a regular habit of mine, but my husband and I had just finished watching the movie 'The Hangover' and thought we'd balance it out with something a bit cerebral.
Boy... were we wrong.
The first story featured an unemployed computer geek with 5 kids and the 6th one due shortly. They live in a $1.3 million dollar home, and of course, they are facing foreclosure. The violins are playing....
Do you think the fat cow of a wife could keep her legs crossed and get a *#@!$& job? Of course not. They are now begging for money and the computer geek has set up his own begging account on pay pal. Personally, I will make a contribution to their fund -- condems and birth control pills.
The second story featured a slime-ball televangelist who managed to raise an ungodly sum of money for some sham church by making prey of the stupid and the gullible. There this slime ball was -- in front of a crowd of faithful believers -- that HE was the one to put them through to the LORD for only $39.99 per month!!!!!
I guess I learned two things from watching network news:
1. Reproduce like rabbits, live in a million dollar home, lose my job, and get major media attention for my personal, pathetic fundraiser;
2. I really need to found a religion.
