“I think the primary cause for dissolution of the American family is that many people expect perfection and instant gratification.”

Reminds me of a song by Mr. Mister called “The Tube.”

THE TUBE
by Mr. Mister
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs-0SCOQ30E

Hi dear, what’s on tonight
Let’s stay up and watch the tube
And bask in the big blue light
Bye bye real life, checking into checking out
It’s saturation time

Perfect faces, perfect background, perfect everything

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
Tonight I can take it all the way
Because tonight, I’m everything I wanted to be

Well dear, it’s a good thing
I don’t have to look at you
And you don’t have to look at me
I think that’s a good thing

We’re perfect strangers, perfect ohh, perfect everything

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
Tonight I can take it all the way
Because tonight, I’m everything I wanted to be

I wanna live, I wanna live

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
Tonight I can take it good
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
Tonight I can take it all the way
Because tonight, I’m everything I wanted to be

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending, ooh
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
Tonight I can take it all the way

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
Tonight I can take it all the way

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending

I wanna live in a dream that is never ending
I wanna love all the wasted time I’m spending
I wanna live in a dream that is never ending

I never thought that I would ever applaud anything that Mister, Mister did but that song is a pretty good summation of my feeling on the subject.
