Day: September 11, 2006

It just got dirtier. I personally tend to view New Jersey as the middle child of the United States–it just wants a little bit of attention, but frankly, no one cares about it or likes the state, including its own family.

Looks like the monarchy decided to call it quits.

A recent study showed baby boomers are using more recreational drugs than they were years earlier.

Baby boomers across the country would not comment. They simply giggled and munched on their Fritos.

Last night I saw something mind-boggling on television. It wasn’t some animal attack show or anything, it was much worse.

Some of you may have seen the commercials for Koppel on Discovery, a brand new news feature show with Ted Koppel. It made its debut on the Discovery Channel last night. The topic was a very sensitive one: the balance of national security and personal rights.

Obviously, a very intriguing and serious show. There was only one problem. The show that came before it, or “lead-in” was MythBusters.

While one of my favorite shows on the channel, I was dumbstruck by the transition. One minute, the MythBusters were creating a column of methane-filled soap bubbles then lighting it on fire, laughing as a fireball roared over their heads, the next was Koppel talking about detainees in Guantanamo Bay.

You gotta love variety.
