I missed the Oscars last night, again, watching that show is akin to going to my wife's bowling banquet. I don't really know anyone and they are all telling "inside" jokes and stories, so I think this is my fifty third time to miss them.
Just think how we are "entertained" ...... by millionaires and people with enormous amounts of money. They are all paid enormous sums to .......... entertain us and keep us glued to a tv set while they are saturating us with ............ COMMERCIALS. Selling products. Television is the winner in every event we watch. Last night was a television show, a few hours of air time, and, I imagine, a plethora of commercials. We should be pleased, in almost every instance, we are entertained, by, Millionaires. Football players, athletes, actors, actresses, TV hosts, late night hosts, ALL millionaires. I doubt that our local news folks are that rich, yet.
The INTERNET is unable to be comprehended by me. I keep looking for a gigantic "building in the sky" where it is all originated. Where all that money goes for "URL'S" .... and a DOMAIN NAME .... who and where does all that money go. Who is in charge of Domain Names? .I never figured that out, but "sombody got a whole lotta money." And, for doing nothing.
I was there, somewhat in its infancy, understood nothing then, and still don't. But is has become a way of life for almost all of us. I remember, years ago, looking up "names" for sale, like NFL, ABC, all for sale, and many, many others ..... I didn't see their value then. I had 20 some domain names, let them all go. I even had joedooley.com .... got tired of paying on it, an ego trip .............
