Tuesdays with Cheryl

What is wrong with everyone? I used to think there was something wrong with me. There is but it's not like everyone else. Who fires bullets at a party? Who has a training camp with a jihad in mind? Did you hear about Kim and Reggie? They have split up. Same with Jessica and Tony. He has banned her from the house. That's what is wrong. People actually care about brain damaged celebrities. Not long ago Lindsay and Brittney were going around with no underwear on making sure when they got out of a car there was a good view of their kumquats. That was front page news!! Now that's something to be proud of. Even if I don't read this crap or look at the pictures there are one million other people who will. It's not like you have to search for it. It's actually listed in the NEWS section. It's on TV. It's in the newspaper. It's on the radio. So which is worse? The celebrity bullshit or the killings that for some were justified. The jihad camp or Lindsey's kumquat? I'm beginning to believe that there should be a training camp for the so called regular guy who will someday have to defend himself against random acts of violence. It moves faster than it used to. The creeping of the bums the white trash and the worthless. It starts in a nice neighborhood and spreads. It's like a disease you can't kill. And who can you blame? I honestly have no idea. It's too big to stop. It's too late. Maybe it's because people no longer have to be responsible for anything. The welfare system that makes it better to sit on your ass than work. Just enough for cigs, beers and maybe an illegal drug or two. Celebrities live by their own rules just as the lazy no good monkey f'rs live by their own rules. No one is watching the hen house. While the cat is away the mouse will play. No one is paying attention or it's gotten so commonplace that you aren't even shocked by it anymore. Did you see where the two year old was scalded to death by her mother and then she ate her? Yeah, that's too bad. It's awful. And that's where it stops. Too bad and awful. Something has been released in this world. It might be Satan - does he deserve a capital letter? Or we could be doing it ourselves. What's that saying people kept throwing around at the beginning of the Bush war? All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. That's a lovely sentiment, isn't it? That's America. A few good men trying to stop evil in this world. How noble. It will be a sacrifice but we're Americans by God. So while our country goes to the top of the whirling water slide some other country is saying, "Thanks but no thanks". We know they don't mean it. We really do care about the people it's never about us. Where is a good old fashioned 40 day flood when you need one? You know why there isn't one? Because after God did the flood thing he made a rainbow. He said that rainbow signifies that he will never destroy the earth again. He didn't say WE wouldn't destroy it. He said HE wouldn't do it. I think we will end up like the science fiction movies. They are just about to unleash a bomb that will end all of humanity and someone cries out, "What about love?" The aliens will stop and realize that they are making a huge mistake. The bomb is put away and off they go. Everyone on earth breaks down and hugs one another and vows never to do anything mean to anyone ever again. We are a living breathing episode of the Twilight Zone. We're traveling through another dimension - a dimension of not only sight and sound but of mind.
