[beyond the sea]

I hear you. The world is coming to an ugly time, and these "news shows" are obsessed with Natalee, the missing guy from the ocean liner, and other small time crimes. It makes me madder than I can explain.

All these shows on these relatively meaningless crimes are only there to keep the people ignorant of the real world crisis.

I know it about sets my hair on fire that the average American, can't name their Congress Critters, know who the VP is. Have a clue about what is going on in this country, but boy they know everything there is to know about Hollywood! I get this constantly from my girlfriends, have you read this dumb book or that dumb book, and I say no, have you read "Men In Black"? Is that about the movie? I want to bash my head into a wall!
