I just hope you don't get Ion3 TV.

An executive meeting at Ion3: "Hey, I have a really dumb idea for a TV show!" "Let's do it!"

Good morning house of telly.

*swats AC*

I happen to love those PBS shows "Queen and country" and "History of England". Consider:

My daughter loves "The Maury show". Husband watches "Storage wars* (GACK) "Pawn Stars" (Hurl) and other assorted junk.

(For those of you who like these shows, my pardon)

Ouch!

I wasn't complaining about The History of England, or even Queen and Country (even though it's been on something like ten times already here).

Sweet!

Oh, everybody I've been thinking a lot about my children lately. I don't get to see them a lot, but the love never dies. Anyway, in my avatar you'll see a pic of my oldest, Kara. She's 23. Sorry for being a little emo. I just wanted you guys to see them.
