Yes...Good Morning Ralph, today will be a great day!<br />Yes, television is BAD for sure, the opiate of the masses! and I love the story of the little frogs! That is so true too!

Don't even watch the news any more.....seems to me 'news' is no longer 'news' unless the commentators can sensationalize someone's misfortune. Who needs it.....what about a 'good news' station!<br />I have the cheapest cable hookup available...40 odd channels.....and I was noticing recently most of them are advertising channels of one sort or another. One channel dedicated to selling jewellery! Another, all day celebrities NEWS! Celebrity news! Give me a break. And advertisements....they go on and on and on. There is even a 'buy in on TV channel...don't know what it is called, but it is there. <br />I am now looking for a set of old fashioned 'rabbit ears' so I might connect these to my television and have the cable company keep their 40 channels. In the meantime I listen to radio and my own music selections and go out and talk to REAL PEOPLE. <br /><br />Thanks for another thought provoking blog. Better leave this soap box to other commentators.Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097711103500084389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6252122811035264254.post-45528664036160960312010-09-20T12:08:01.964+01:002010-09-20T12:08:01.964+01:00I couldn't agree with you more!

I've found the media to be a way of brainwashing the masses rather than informing us of the truth, as we have all been told. The real important things happening in the world get talked about enough, that I still stay relatively informed. But what I don't subject myself to is the brainwashing. Whether you see it or hear it, if its too often, you begin to believe it.Susan Rouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01811139850899265798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6252122811035264254.post-55681060363871646642010-09-20T11:13:17.640+01:002010-09-20T11:13:17.640+01:00I absolutely LOVE this story!I absolutely LOVE this story!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05600673251180423439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6252122811035264254.post-41248572532176973972010-09-20T10:10:10.860+01:002010-09-20T10:10:10.860+01:00Wow! that was a good one.

Though our ideas are not similar, yet there can be seen the connection in the way our thoughts flow.<br />Why don't you come over and read them, and see how people all over the world think similarly.<br />I really love going through all your blogs.<br />Have an enjoyable week.Rama Ananthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962222316822524699noreply@blogger.com
