That horrible pain in my hip joints. Not just because of the pain, but also because my father's making terrible jokes about it.

Same here. Everytime there's a significant change in barometric pressure, my body lets me know. It sucks.

So-called celebrities and the hours spent on them on TV and all media showing how fucked up they are and their rehabilitation so we can go another several rounds with them watching how fucked up they are again and see their rehabilitation again in a repeating cycle until nobody cares about them anymore and a new batch are found to do all the same shit in the same cycle.

Look, none of them could do much of anything to begin with except become celebrities who get very fucked up and undergo the same rehabilitation cycle.

They all look the same, fit the same Madison Ave. generated paradigm and never can do very much of anything. But they sell so they get mass consumed by idiots who delight in watching and, if they can, reading about them.

Now, are you at risk for or have been diagnosed with asthma, diabetes, bipolar depression, cardio-vascular disease, erectile dysfunction and susceptible to a myriad of cancer-causing, dementia-inducing viruses? Well, the things for you are a mere two TV commercials away as you watch that rotten HDTV box or two pages away as you turn the pages of that thing you're reading which, in either case, is full of more shit about fucked up celebrities and their upcoming rehabilitation.

It would almost be worth the nuclear radiation dammage to blow that shit to hell! Won't it just make a go-away???

On a related note: The whole Caylee/Caycee schtick on CNN Nancy Grace. How long can you rag on that horrible, horrible mother who must have killed her daughter? How long can you go over the details of finding her pitiful little body buried in a field right near her house? Do people actually sit down and watch this every night, every time feeling outrage and disgust? They must, because they picked up a new lost child story and are running with it. This one isn't as interesting, though, because the mom seems to be genuinely distressed that her little girl is missing, so no tearing apart a bad mom. But, wait! They'll find something! And go over it again and again and again every night. Way to interfere with the legal system and insure that someone will never get a fair trial.

Is that it? Uh huh. I used to switch on CNN every time the world was on fire, and every time they were talking about that.

Couldn't agree with you more Sabs...
It seems that "cable" news isn't as experienced or dare I say, as smart as Network
News Channels.
CNN hires people for very little money and like the old story goes...you get what you pay for.
When MSNBC sent Geraldo "Mr Talkshow" Rivera over to Iraq, he was broadcasting
troop movements over the air!!!
CNN's Cristian Amanpoor (an informant for al-jazeera no less) went on stating how we should feel for all those innocent people in Iraq (reporters are there for one thing...to report, not to tell us how we should feel)
The top brass for CNN told their reporters they would fired if they left Baghdad when
Desert Storm's first bombs started dropping. Remember they were in a hotel room
a few blocks where bombing was occuring.
Then of course there was the Chandra Levy murder...CNN dragged that out for weeks 24/7 until the first plane hit the Trade Center on 9/11. After that Chandra's name wasn't mentioned til 3 months later.
Plus all Cable channels repeat, repeat, repeat the same stories for days.
We have a sign that hangs in our studios that says: "History Repeats Itself. News Happens Once".
So.. maybe I sound a bit biased on my opinions towards Cable News.. but I think I have some valid points wouldn't you agree?

Depends. I don't like burning injuries. Or scarring.

Is that scar a burn that's particularly iron-shaped Galoot?

I got a new food proccesor yesterday and managed to slice my middle finger pretty good and my thumb a little bit right on the joint, even though I do know that those grinding blades are very, very sharp. The proccessor is now annointed with my blood. I hope the kitchen gods are happy with my blood sacrifice.

In my experience, injuries incurred are usually a sign of massive competence. Two of my best friends are a good example. The one, an expert woodsman, is constantly maiming himself with axes, scythes and chainsaws and the other, a fishmonger, who cooks beautifully, is always turning up with bandaged digits. Then there's me; Mr Incompetence as regards manual tasks, unless I do things very, very slowly - I never have a scratch.

Thanks for that vote of confidence, Caputh. It was in trying to unpack the thing that the injury happened. The one blade was stuck firmly in the styrofoam packing. In trying to wiggle it out, i felt my finger slide down the blade and jerking my hand away I sent it across the floor, nearly decapitataing Doug's toe. Wisely, he jumped aside. Food proccessing be bop tango, right here in the kitchen.
