What's Next?

Anthony is in hiding, that trial is over, the war is getting rather boring, for those of us at home, getting very tired of seeing Obama on the television, he is on more regularly than Ellen. Are the fires out in the Southwest, have not heard much recently? Any floods, tornadoes, heard briefly that some volcano is erupting, don't think the lava will make it to Newark, Ohio.

Something has to be standing in the wings, just waiting to erupt on the news scene. My guess is that most of the news persons are at their home office, just waiting for the next GREAT news story.

Some TV shows can just rehash abductions and murders forever. High heat around the country is not much of a story. I cool off by watching Ice Road Truckers or gathering Crabs in the wherever they go after them. If I get seasick from that I can watch them cut down trees in the swamp, or gather up alligators, or watch survival in the hinterlands, guys close to death, hungry, just barely surviving, while the film crews shooting them are well fed. Haven't figured that out yet.

Middle of the Summer, so we are having End of Summer Sales, and seeing Christmas in July on the one selling channel. Back to school merchandise came out at Walmart the day after school closed, and on TV, promos about the New Fall Season. One ad was for a show that "everyone" is talking about, and it has not even aired yet. I never figured that out, or Hit of the Season and no one has seen it ye

Monday Night Football is already being promoted and the last I heard they were not sure if there was going to be a season or not. Trust me, the networks WILL NOT let that happen. Players and owners have nothing to do with it, TV controls sports, so, we will see NFL football next season. All this off season bantering is just promotion for the upcoming season.

Just wondering where the next "disaster" will come from, the next "big" news story, something has to happen, somewhere. There are thousands of people who make their living off of "news," just waiting to spring on some ............. BIG EVENT...
