no wonder we're idiots.

I love Jeopardy! The fact that I can usually outsmart the celebrities on there makes me feel smart. Not that trivial knowledge makes someone intelligent-but I think it looks really bad when an ACTOR (Michael McKean) beats the U.S. SECRETARY OF EDUCATION by almost 30,000 points on Jeopardy!, a show viewed by millions of generally uneducated people (because we are, as a whole, one of the lowest countries on the totem pole in education). So hop in your car and GO SEE A MOVIE. Because, apparently, actors know alot more than the bigwigs of the American Education system. And-I love Michael McKean, anyway. Oh, and Harry Shearer won by a landslide last week. Maybe there are perks for being friends of Christopher Guest.

And I just missed Dave Grohl on the music awards. Oh well-at least I got to see my man Jack Black. Awards are ridiculous anyway. Just give me movies and music-I don't give a shit who anyone likes more than I do and whether or not they have won some dumbass gold statue. I won a trophy of a gold horse's ass one year at my previous job for most likely to break a machine. Where the thing is now, I couldn't tell you. Even winning an award for being the world's biggest clutz doesn't mean dick to me. So why would I care who won a bucket of gold popcorn from MTV or an Oscar from the Academy? The people that are nominated aren't even actors that I give a flying fuck through a rolling donut about. And the ones I do like never win. And the music awards? 90% of the music I listen to isn't even on the radio-half of them are dead or from Iceland. The other 10% is classical and maybe some random crap from the 80's. A few popular bands. I don't know where I'm going with this. I'm boring myself. Good Night, Mary Ellen.
