We really ought to have TV cameras filming the day-to-day activities here in the Such Is Life household. We’re as entertaining as anything you’ll ever see on “reality” TV shows - at least based on any given episode I’ve ever seen. You could catch us watching TV shows, lounging in our yard on lawn chairs – we could even have a segment where we play with bugs, like they did last night on one of the actual “reality” shows.

Good Golly Miss Molly – we suffered through the last three minutes of “I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here” last night, while waiting to catch the debut of Conan O’Brien’s first “Tonight Show”. People actually watch this stuff? 

First off, shouldn’t a celebrity be someone you might actually RECOGNIZE? Second, and based on the three minutes of the program we endured – I think we’d both rather have red-hot fireplace pokers driven through our knees, than have to actually lose an hour of our lives watching that stupidity every week.

But who are we to judge, I suppose? If viewers are tuning in, why WOULDN’T the networks offer up costless crapola like that? I imagine it’s a damn sight cheaper than actually paying for scripts and real actors – some of the “celebrities” might even pay to be on TV for all I know.

I guess we just beat to a different drum. Who knows, maybe 50 years from now this stuff will all be considered classic television.

Or a bad dream….

Chow for now!!
