Just Another Manic Monday

Tags: TV, Pajamas Media
If you caught Andy Rooney's piece on 60 Minutes last night, you appreciated his words that CBS will no longer attempt to predict the future. Rooney referenced a news package produced and aired in the 1980s which envisoned a future technically superior to the one we are experiencing today. "Americans will work 6 hour a day 30 hour weeks." Wow, whatever made them predict that? These days, husband and wife need to each work a 40+ hour full along with a part time job and hold a garage sale once a month just to stay afloat!

Rooney mentioned Mexico city, and that mere mention of Mexicans conjured up visions of illegal aliens that must have kept Michelle Malkin tossing and turning all night. The Pajamas Media gal dashed this post off just before 3AM!

In the news today, we have the anniversay of Hurricane Katrina and another storm bearing down on Florida. Poor New Orleans will never be the same! You can't really blame the mayor for that, because those dams and levees would have broken anyway, no matter who the mayor was! And in the entertainment world, the buzz is all about a Plane Crash skit that aired on the Emmys.
