I got rid of cable when my kids started getting old enough to watch TV. Not only did it save me $40.00/mo. but now I have control over what comes in to my house. No more MTV or the sleaze of the "reality" shows - playing puppetmaster with cameras in the Bathroom for God sakes! I just read today where Court TV is going to air a show called "Confessions" every Sunday, starting in a couple of weeks. The show is actual, uncensored, confessions of prison inmates explaining what it was like to murder and rape - in graphic detail! They expect it to be a ratings hit! You can read about this in the entertainment section of cnn.com. As for the rap....went to Home Depot the other day with my (almost) 3 year old. Got out of the car to hear yet another car stereo blaring out 4 letter words set to a droning bass. It's all gone a little too far.
Worst Music of All-Time
What is the suckiest, pots and pans clanging together, cat in heat, fingernail scratching on the chalkboard noise you have ever heard? To me it has to be all that MTV promoted, yo-yo-yo, B-boy pop music that seems to consume the airwaves, magazines, and television time. And by all means feel free to bash particular artists, I like that too. Example: You could find more musical talent in the restroom of a trailer park chili feed than on a Puff Daddy album. Not too far off, huh?
