Yeah Seeker, 'tis true.

But there's a weird thing about Nuke...

He'll just go....."blaahhhhhrgh"

Full frontal troll.

Yet, over time, ya sense that it's grounded in some sort of encompassing conviction. What that is, escapes me.

In fact, I think it escapes even him. His trolls are less for our reading enjoyment and more for his own... research & development.

It's troll-like...for sure...  only because Nuke is troll-like.

And until Martlet gets jailed, I think Nuke is teetering on the edge but within the law.

Good God yes I am tired of it.  The press overdoes everything, just as they did the Scott/Laci Peterson thing, and the Terry Schiavo affair.

This morning ABC was running a big banner "Breaking News  The Pope Near death".  Well no shxt!   It is hardly "breaking news".

Someone should have the brains and guts to revamp major news coverage.

I`ve discovered some amazing things.
The first was that I can hit a certain button on my TV remote and instantly be moved to another channel. By experimenting with this I have found that I can go to non-news channels. Amazing! What will they think of next?
I was so excitied by this that I went to my stereo, turned it to FM radio and found that I could go to all music, non-news stations there also.
Thinking that I just might be on to something with this new found knowledge, I then went to my PC for further experimentation. Eureka!!!! I uncovered the secret to non-newsdom on the PC also. By manipulating a small device, known in tech terms as a "mouse", I could throw caution to the wind and go to non-news websites and forums.
I was thinking of writing an e-book about these discoveries to share the knowledge and possibly generate some cash from these break throughs.
Then I came here. What did I find? A multitude of threads and complaining posts within, lamenting and sniveling over the content of the news.
Well, back to the laboratory. :rofl

Ah jackal, the master of the obvious.

I guess we aren't entitled to an opinion without risking his pathetic attempt at sarcastic humor.

Yes jackazz, i mean jackal, you can change the channel, I am glad you discovered that, but with your failing to recognize this fact, let me point out that there are some people who do like to watch news shows to see what is happening in the country and the world, and do not care to see non-stop continuing obsession with just one story.

Chill out junior.
It was humor.
If ya wanna watch the crap, then don`t whine about it.
Carry on. That is all.
