I am not neurotically annoyed by too many things. But
perhaps middle age has made the sense of disgust -unlike the other
vital senses -more acute. I hear more things in hell, to be sure.
I often fantasize about ridding myself of the damm TV
forever. But I am too attached to the VCR -which is blessedly free
of noisy, dumb, and obnoxious commercials.
I must catch the morning news on Channel 10. What I can't
stand - and don't understand - is the very beginning of the program
where the cameras always zoom in on the screaming-hyenas - FANS - of
Katy and Matt, I guess . How can they be so infantile over a moment
of media attention ?
What a contrast between the nightmare news and the
demeanor of the celebrity news people - ( they ooze narcissism ) -
and the bestial FANS in the street.
The Providence horror writer H.P Lovecraft got it right
about the future of humanity. A decayed species will inherit the
earth. Public education gives most kids a vocabulary of 100 words
- BASIC ENGLISH. A dismal future for the newspaper business !
