Ok, I am going to rant a little about all the stuff that has been happening.

#1 It is time to go back to regular programming on TV. All this crap on TV asking for donations and crying about what happened almost two weeks ago is dumb. Sure, it was tragic, but it is time to move on. Let the military handle it. The media is going to milk this for as long as they can.

#2 I can't believe it took a tragedy of the magnitude of the NYC disaster to get more people patriotic. I have always had strong feelings about the US and had a flag on my house. Now, everyone else has one. It is good to see it, but it is a shame it took something like a terrorist strike to get everyone else on board.

*Sigh*

Quit your whining... all the networks have gone back to their regular programming except for the Friday celebrity marathon.

What, you're tired that MSNBC and CNN have continued showing this stuff? Would you like them to go back to Condit and shark attacks? Fvcking whiners.

The celebrity marathon was lame....and returning to regular programming for two days is a improvement...it was about time. No, I also don't want to hear about Gary Condit...but I also don't want to be seeing repeats of the tragedy and interviews of the janitor (honest) of the World Trade Center. I couldn't believe it when I saw that.

If you don't like what's on TV then turn it off and get a life.

So just because you had a flag on your house before the tragedy means you're more of an American than everyone who doesn't?

The corporate world should go back to their usual commerical instead of running ads about wtc for their own agenda.
