and while i'm on this ridiculous subject, more....

accident or not, the reaction's not only insane - it's hypocritical in the extreme. I wonder if brittany spears or madonna had done it - would they've been ready to tar n feather them too? doubtful, since many have no problem letting their daughters dress and emulate either one. and that picture of them swappin spit was plastered everywhere for weeks.

professional sports had female cheerleaders wear next to nothing and shake their moneymakers during halftime; pay-per-view has "The Lingerie Bowl"(models playing football in very skimpy underwear; porn's a multi-billion dollar business in america. Oprah & dateline do stories on elementary school kids performing oral sex on the school bus, mothers are buying their pre-pubescent daughters thongs and body piercings. Parents can tart up baby girls a la jonbenet - and not one damn peep from moral majority.

but jj's nipple is the downfall of fricking western civilization? give me a effin break! then you've got that egomaniac and two-time adulterer donald trump calling jj "disgusting and all about self promotion". now coming from "the donald" that takes major cajones.
And now Dave Grohl of band The Foo Fighters has gotten into it, stating "Jackson's breast-baring stunt was nothing more than self-promotion and "blatant exhibitionism."

the former nirvana drummer believes the music industry has been harmed by the recent skin-revealing exploits of jackson, britney spears and christina aguilera. "Get them on the Playboy Channel," Grohl said Thursday at a pre-Grammy rehearsal party. "Keep them out of my MTV. I want to see bands and music."

EXCUSE ME?!? where was this guy that band blink 182 appeared buck naked runnng through the streets in broad daylight in a music video - that also featured porn star janine! and blurring the butt n crotch shots doesn't change a damn thing.

and blink 182 also appeared on the mtv awards naked standing behind boards that blocked the camera's view of their crotches. why wasn't he protesting that? so i guess it's ok for them to do it - but janet jackson's a sleazy self aggrandizing ho when she does it?

now tell me mr. music purist - how exactly does jogging with yer giblets flappin in der breeze and drooling over janine help their musical muse? it doesn't butt munch. that did it for kicks and no one criticized them for it. they were lauded for it and got alot of positive press coverage. so if your rule doesn't apply to everyone - just shut the f*** up dave!

"America is sick. It's a country that worships basketball players and supermodels as deities and treats the poor as an enemy. You can see a human being shot to death on network television, but a human breast is too obscene to make the cut. We love war, we love our country, but we hate each other. Our entire society is structured around making money, often at the expense of another, and "entertainment" assures us that it's all normal. Families are almost nonexistent, and the only safe neighborhoods are patrolled by armed guards with attack dogs. " --Crashsite

99 Lufts Balloons

Let me just say for the record that i cannot beleive they are using a song about the damages of war to promote and sell a cell phone. If there ever was a song to listen to right now it's 99 Lufts balloons, and NOT in a commercial

On a happier note ABC is once again Launching Fan February Lets hope this time they remember the FAN in Fan February.

Ok so I'm a little overdue in my blog. Who can blame me really. Winter is on it's way, the world is going to hell in a handbasket, and what is there really to talk about in daytime other that we need better writers, and more visionaries. What I wouldn't do for a nice beach on a deserted island with a dam good book to read, and preferably Ed Harris waiting on my every need. Ahhh.

Goodbye and good luck to Billy Warlock, who has decided to leave GH.

I've now become a buffyfile, or an angelfile. Well actually, I tuned into angel first then gravitated to the now defunct buffy. I'm late in the game, well incredibly late, but I now see what everyone was talking about. I now can't wait to see the musical episode. Ah if only daytime had this kind of imagination and writing talent, just think of what we would have right now. One can only dream.

What I'm really suppose to be doing with this blog is writing 90% of the time about daytime, but since surfing daytime boards drive me crazy,(while storytelling seems to be a lost art as my colleague said, interesting debate seems to be a lost cause on daytime boards) I ultimately tend to surf other sites and boards, I came upon a curiosity http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=16917
