With the immense amount of time in my hands, I've taken to a *gasp* couch potato's lifestyle. Probably clocked in more hours in the past week than I have in the past... uh... year. All that telly watching has only served to shamelessly expose Man in his full glory of vice, stupidity, and despotic tendencies. Admittedly, the bulk of the blame can be laid upon reality tv shows, what with their platitudinous rigmaroles... The truth hurts, but the truth will also set you free - One woman to another in her attempt to admonish her on her supposedly poor parenting skills, on Trading Spouses. Yeesh. No expounding required for the stuff shown on E! Entertainment. I'll sheepishly admit that I've been tuning in to that alot though... heh. Programs on NGC and Discovery are peppered with our humanisms, like how since Man has always been "conquering" things, spreading over the continents, overcoming the Ice Age, it's now time for him to conquer space and perhaps inhabit Mars, a good time to start thinking about it anyway in view of the fact that the sun's only going to get hotter and hotter and us humans will perish on planet earth if we don't do a thing about it.

Point of this post? None at all. It was just a humbug of a rant. Or a humbug's rant. Or perhaps it was a rant on humbugs.

Humbug.
