Runaway Future

So…uh…works suck…I’m thinking I should develop a drinking problem. But yeah, I wanted this or something, I was itching for a challenge.
Anyway, to unwind I bought stuff (2 CDs, 2 DVDs and 2 Books) and then came home to drink beer and watch Office Space.

Oh, so yeah, I’ve been rather bitter and cranky lately.

Anyway, I hate American Idol and how people think it’s relevant. One of the judges (the one who isn’t Simon, and isn’t sleeping with contestants…Paula Abdul) was on the Daily Show and the only redeeming point was when Jon Stewart said he doesn’t really watch the show. Sadly, it was serious enough to be believeable. Is there anyway to stop this beast?

Speaking of beasts, CTV basically upsets me. Ok, so they’re having a show on Saturday called the Next Great Prime Minister. They have five finalists who are going to be judged by Turner, Clark, Mulroney and Campbell and win fame and fortune. Ok, let’s ignore the fact that none of these ex-Prime Ministers doing the judging are great. Also let’s ignore the fact that other then Mulroney, none of these ex-Prime Ministers had time to even hang a picture of themselves before getting the boot.
I know, I just know that CTV is going to fluff this up. It’s going to be terrible. Instead of having political commentary it’ll be fluff. How do I know this? Today they did a promo for it, Ben Mulroney interviewing the Prime Ministers on what they look for (having Kim Campbell talk about leadership and guiding a country was priceless). Anyway, it took 30 seconds before the conversation degenerated into a conversation about Ben Mulroney’s hair and whether or not all of them (including Daddy-o) thought he should need a haircut. See, that’s what CTV has become, seriously. They have their E-Talk Daily and Canada AM and it’s all fluff. Is it completely out of the question to ask for decent political commentary?

Maybe I’m just tired.
