I'm such a sap. I actually had tears in my eyes last nite after watching
the "Idol" telecast. What's wrong with me? Of course, I cry over anything now that the *head is occupying the WH. My eyes will be puffy until '08!:cry:


PS - I am actually hoping Bo wins. That just proves what a sap I am!

1. Sometimes it feels so good not to watch TV.
So...very....good.

3. Nothing against you Bullwinkle, but I am soooooooooo proud
of myself for being able to say that I have never watched one minute of this show or Survivor or any of the other reality shows.

If I want reality, I watch CSPAN. I watch tv to be entertained or to learn something from the cable channels.

5. You're right - it is just FLUFF tv - but it helps me to get away from the
reality from my own life. This is the first time I've watched Idol. I must say that it has grown on me. Of course, during the day I have the news on all the time.
Can't be depressed 24/7. That's when the fluff tv comes in handy.

9. I'm with you on the fluff. I really can't say anything, I've actually
taken to writing to NBC because they cancelled my cheesy American Dreams (nice bit of fluff).

Also, my mother has never missed an episode of Survivor and won't take calls during the show, so I know of the lure of reality tv.

May the fluff be with us. :)

14. I know - I wrote to ABC years ago when they cancelled "Homefront".
I'm still not over that one.

Sigh!

10. I didn't.
I cried during Lost, though... the part when Sawyer was telling Jack about meeting his dad, and what he said...

:cry:

12. You'll have to fill me in on the dialogue. I tried watching "Lost" but
somehow couldn't get into it????

Could have been the mood I was in that day?

24. That's going to be my next car! Prehaps at the end of the year.
At one time I liked Porsche's and a strange thing about Alfa Romeos.

29. You're right - I must be ADD!
I almost posted somewhere else and then caught myself - must save the 1,000th for Guggenheim.

Thanks for your help.

HOORAY FOR ME.

PARTY ON!!

Now, as promised - where on this planet are you?

36. I am pleased
Naima won. I picked her to do it on the 1st epi-which is odd for me to be right about something like that. BTW-it's the only 'reality' show I watch. Honest...:hi:
