Television is a tricky thing.  You can waste hours doing nothing and not remember why. Its a mind sucking 'boob tube' that no one seems to be able to live without. We have here an assembly of musical guests on some talk shows. None are good, none are profound and they're all basically there to promote themselves though you cant flip on your radio without hearing them anyway.  In the present 'social media' is a hell of allot more efficient then television but in a nostalgic way waiting for your favorite band to come one TV is a fun, I suppose.  Youtube solves the waiting time though…

Looks like this weeks winners are the Canadian power kids Justin Bieber and Carly Rae Jepson. Yet, even that is a repeat from March.  Cant say I'm a fan but man- do they get allot of attention.  I also find Ellen annoying so that's the perfect trio for me to get ticked off watching.  I still miss Night Flight and 120 Minutes.  Just sayin'.
