In the summertime
Sometimes I question why I don't spend more time watching news and news shows. As a result, I spend my mornings tuned in to Canada A.M. and my home page set to CBC.ca. I start each day with a hearty bowl of oatmeal, a steaming cup of coffee and a healthy serving of Canadian content.
At lunch, I indulge in back-to-back Canadian comedy shows--This Hour has 22 Minutes and Canadian Air Farce, and if I get home earlier, it's The Red Green Show although I find Red a tad less entertaining than the other two.
Tonight I started to watch the local news but hearing about some driver who made bowling pins out of human beings at a Victoria bus stop, a homicide in the Vancouver area which left the dead man's fiance to give birth to and raise the twins she is expecting and a Vancouver business school that was forced to close its doors to students after the owner most likely skipped the country due to owing a heap in back taxes. Ahh what a wonderful world we live in.
That 's why I watch Seinfeld episodes every night; it gives me a laugh and keeps my mind off wondering how our planet will evolve and how stupid we can act.

I admit, I watch Dog the bounty hunter on A+E. I even watch The Gottis occasionally, but it tends to annoy me. Airline is another that I catch occasionally if I'm really bored. I don't watch the one about the family of undertakers, Family Plots. It's depressing.
Notice a theme here? A+E. It's my only channel, other than CNN Headline News.

You should be ashamed of yourself - you call yourself a Canadian journalist! Don't you realize you have to consume a minimum 6 hours of CBC a day to be allowed in the union.
