Sarah’s Reality

She’s flirted with tea party televangelism; now she wants her own reality show. Somehow, it seems to me the natural end of the Sarah Palin story is a non-reality-based “reality show.” Think “John and Kate” with extra moose-hunting.
What’s sad is that she actually sees this as a step up in the world.
Of course, Celebrity Barbie has no capacity for self-examination, which is why she will never know that her sad paranoia and diva attitude piss people off. It’s the second coming of Anna Nichole Smith.
Teh Train Wreck™ continues off the rails and long past Denial Station.
Kill Your Television
Dec 15, 2009 Kill Your Television, Television, Video is Dead
It seems the big, new threat is your old, heavy television. The rate of injury by falling TV sets has hit a new high:
A team from the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Ohio reviewed data from 100 emergency rooms and estimated that about 14,700 furniture-related injuries occurred each year between 1990 and 2007 – almost half due to TV sets, the most common article involved in the accidents – and resulted in about 300 deaths.The research, published in October in the journal Clinical Pediatrics, showed that the number and rate of injuries to youngsters from falling furniture increased significantly over the period. The rate generally rose from 18.8 per 100,000 people in 1990 to 22.9 in 2007, peaking at 25.7 in 2004.
As I’ve been warning all of you for years now, your TV really is out to kill you.
