I WANNA KNOW!

Did Roger Clemens take steroids? Did he buy them from Britney? These are questions I need answered. My very existence depends are these peoples lives. Please tell me more news with the scrolling text beneath my favorite show. Please interrupt my House MD with this important information. I need to know! Text my cell with alerts and send me emails, and don't forget the Goodyear blimp and smoke signals! We need all the bases covered!

Sometimes too much information is just that. Too much!

Elections!


Is it me or are there slim pickins' for presidential candidates? I mean none of them seem to be serious enough for me. None of them seem to want to have an answer or a plan. They love to point the finger. And the media is no help either. Sacrificing ratings for a real story. For example do we really are that much about Britney Spears?

Is it me? Am I missing something?

Do you remember a time when...


Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-moe"?

Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "Do Over!"?

"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest?

Catching the fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening?
