Monday is here

April 1, 2012

Monday what a drag Jeff was thinking about all the changes that have happened in his life and he was particularly thinking about what we let kids watch on TV or in the movies. They’ve banned coyote and the roadrunner cartoons as being to violent they say your children shouldn’t see Bambi it’s to traumatic for them yet they let pulp fiction into theaters and even thou they rate it R doesn’t mean kids haven’t seen it. Growing up Jeff was smart enough to know that the Coyote was just a cartoon character and that animals died from being hunted by man. It seems to Jeff that there’re out there trying to change what we know to be fact into what they think we should know. I think the cartoon and movie things were just a way to see how much censorship they could impose by staying it was for the good of the kids. In the state of Texas they have taken certain facts out of history books like not mentioning certain presidents they hope because they are the largest orders of text books that they will make the publishers print the books that way for all the states. Jeff believes that the US was founded by people that were tired of having one person tell them what to believe and how to worship. It would seem that now hundreds of years after the first European arrived here that if you want that kind of freedom you might have to go back to Europe. Funny how we got to this point in the post from simply complaining that we couldn’t watch Coyote and the Road Runner cartoons anymore. I’ll let Jeff write about this another time CSI NY is coming on and it’s one I haven’t seen yet Ciao.

    it is amazing how Jeff and I agree on so much – OMG.
    not going to church myself I am not sure if the T-shirts are the syle now. I do know when I worked and lived in the city if you were going to a broadway show you would dress to the 9’s, now sloppy jeans and dirty T-shirs are the fashion. Forget the movies, what about what children can pick up just by connecting to the electronics they are holding in the palm of their hands.
