Really, Rent One If You Need To!

It always seems to me that there are too many people out there with too little to do. Videos on YouTube seem to be a pretty good example. While I'll admit that I've ssen some hilarious ones, the "Leave Britny Alone" item that got international fame was 'way over the top. I saw the guy who does this little dance all around the world, and he got a sponsor to aid him in his travels! Unreal! The guy who built a home-made water slide from the roof of his parents' house in order to end in a kiddie pool somewhere in the yard? Seriously deranged. He, like so many others, needs a job or at least a profitable hobby (as if the injuries he suffered trying it didn't convince him!) Some of these things gets thousands of hits AN HOUR! What are all these people doing? Get a life, people! I saw a couple of slightly used ones at Blockbuster with all the VCR tapes...I'm sure there's one for you. And this doesn't even begin to scratch the surface: how about all the chat room folks out there who literally spend more time online than they do in real life? Even Brad Paisley has a clue which he lets us in on with his new song "Online." "I'm a lot cooler online'" he sings. Aren't we all?
Now, of course, a new venting of wrath is about to be let loose...now that we know Albus Dumbledore is gay. I can just feel the chat lines heating up...it will, no doubt, be part of the presidential platform for whichever candidate gets the suppport of the moral majority (who, by the way, is finding it extremely difficult to find a suitable candidate. Hello? mean anything to you folks? Your best hope just dropped out...before any primary, even!) Anyhow, back to JK Rowling.
What was she thinking by making that dumb pronouncement over the weekend? While I realize that there are many I-have-no-life-except-Harry Potter fanatics out there, what possible benefit could this information have? The series is over, no more books to be written, Dumbledore died a couple of books ago, anyway; so why bring it up? Just to irritate parents and the religious right? Rowling needs a life as well as the rest of the fanatics out there. George Carlin was right when he said that being born on earth was a ticket to a freak show. Of course, he also added that being born in the U.S. meant one had a front-row seat to said show as well!
Enough rants from me. I've got a great idea for a YouTube video that I've got to get working on between MySpace and FaceBook correspondence.
