He probably wouldn't be too surprised with Trump.

Dang it's almost like he's describing people I know.

Townie is you a science test, what do think about them farts causing the climate to change? Do they make it cooler or warmed, wet or dry, wind blow more or less. What is your best guess as a science test.

I can't decide if I hope this account is real or a sock.

Sober up and try rephrasing the question.

Be a lot more fun if you just answer it as it was posed.

My neighbor ends every statement with savvy. For some reason I laugh every time. You’re not Brad are you? That’s how it’s spelled btw.

I’m a big fan of Carl. He’s been dead on accurate on a lot of topics. To be fair, this was 1995 and the writing was already on the wall. Bill Clinton was president and most independents knew we were effed.

He and my high school teachers taught me something special I use everyday and I’ll share it with you. Question everything. And if you agree with it, question it even more.

How about we bemoan a time in America where people went to public hangings like a day at the fair, or stoned people because we thought they were witches? Maybe we could talk about the stupidity of the average person when Charlie's Angels, Three's Company, or Mr. Ed were highly rated TV shows. How about a time when people were freaking out because a silly radio show told a story of Martians invading.

If we are living in such a Idiocracy, who is advancing technology to the point where I can sit in my living room and ask Google questions and see pics taken from a rover on the surface of Mars?

I like Carl Sagan, but I remember in the 80's he gave us about a 50% chance of surviving as a species for another generation. Also, that was a run on sentence Robert Allen would envy.

I’ll take “Charlie's Angels, Three's Company, or Mr. Ed” over “This is Us, A Million Little Things, Dancing with the Stars” or any number of other vomit-inducing shows on the networks these days.

If it wasn't for sports and reruns, I'd have no reason to have a TV at all. Those two things and local weather are the only things I ever tune in to the networks to see.

My Name is Earl was a great show, more recent than those mentioned, but still no longer around.

There's always sport though.

If you count that recent democratic debate as a cage match that's a sport too.
