Virginia Is For Families

The Tiger Woods drama continues to evolve. They say that this is a good time to be investing in real estate. It’s a buyer’s market and there are lots of properties out there looking for someone to love them. Obviously. And it’s good to see Elin Woods doing her share to keep the economy going as she reportedly purchased a house down the street from the one with the battered fire hydrant.

And she also bought a home back home in Sweden too because her parents want her to take the kids and return to them. Remove yourself from the hot clime of Florida our beloved daughter! Leave your hot (but unfortunately) insane husband to his philandering ways.

I don’t know if any of this is true. I just hear things on television like everyone else and shake my head. There are some things that I’m very tired of seeing and hearing on the tube. Especially at dinnertime. The commercials for Viagra and the rest all happen during the dinner hour when some people sit around with trays while they watch the television.

Bad idea. I’m so tired of hearing about the four hour problem while I’m eating pasta or chewing on a piece of lettuce. I could be more explicit but this is a family blog.

I’m tired of the ads for car repairs too. Get your car repaired for free! They fail to mention that you have to send them an unspecified amount of money every month even if your car doesn’t need repair. It’s like those repair policies you can purchase every time you buy electronic equipment.

This is going to break! You better buy some insurance! Well maybe I should look for a better product then!

I’m not going to buy Tiger Woods products anymore. At least not until he gets his stuff straightened out.

He may need to see a professional and even take some medication along the way. But I doubt it will be the kind that causes the four hour problem. It may be the kind that stops people from destroying fire hydrants in the middle of the night. It may be the kind that helps someone who has many repressed emotions from suddenly exploding them in the atmosphere like a gas main with a major leak.

We live in a crazy world. There is precious little sanity coming our way from our media resources. It’s up to us to manufacture it on a daily basis and share it with each other. Which is why some folks blog. Oh those are the kind of blogs I like to read!!

Too bad I can’t read them while I’m eating dinner. Or maybe I can! It may be time to hook up the computer to the television set!

And cancel the cable!! Could this be a future trend? Will we shut of the flow of mindless material into our homes ? We don’t answer the telephone any more when strangers call and try to sell us stuff. Will we protect ourselves at long last from the television commercial too?
