TV Dinner

After inspiring episodes of Lizzie McGwire and Boy Meets World, here i am hittin up the journey. Now, believe me i know that i have out grown some of these old shows and its pretty pathetic that i watch lizzie mcgwire on a nightly basis but i honestly think i appreciate the show more than if i was younger. In the words of Dennis Miller, "Now I dont wanna go off on a rant here but"...shows like Saved By The Bell and Full House used to be must see tv in my younger years but now i can watch them and really enjoy the shows for what they are. I missed some of the humor b/c i was either too young or too stupid to understand them but now i get it. I'm not going to go into great detail on tonight's episodes but  lets just say their were oscar worthy performances on both shows and in the end a life lesson was learned. An important message that probably could be applied to my life today. ok maybe a little details, Mr Feeny unraveled the hidden truth as he always seems to do and Lizzy came to a brilliant realization. Iinsightful wisdom and guidance is kinda what's missing in todays TV shows..im not saying go back to the torturous days of "Leave it to Beaver" but kids arent learning anything on the Sureal Life except for the simple fact that vanilla ice is as brain dead as he is untalented.

And dont get me wrong i'm def pro alternatives, The Simpsons, Family Guy, That 70 Show and Married With Children are shows that lack wholesome messages but their fine with me. They are funny and certainly entertaining..and the old phrase if u dont like it change the channel still holds true. My only concearn is that whats on the next channel will probably be worse than what ur already watching. I dont mean to sound  like a 1940's mom who is livid about hearing Potsy tell the Fonz to "sit on it". (maybe thats a terrible example and huge generation gap but u know what im saying) I dont wanna be that guy, i just found it refreshing and redeaming  to watch these shows and i wished to share it with u. Some food for thought..hence another one of my clever titles.

In other news, i had a family bbq on sunday welcoming my cuz and her new husband to thier new house. Its a nice place in massapequa, they have very lavish taste so of course everything looks excellent. I only hopewhen iget a house it will look as nice. I dont really excell when it comes to decorating. My room is more bland than Bert's jokes.hahh j/k? But i dunno why im worrying about that now i need to find a chick who i can tolerate first. And then she has to like me...which is not an easy task. Then i have to grow a pair and make a move. I really wish i had the confidence but  like a midget commiting suicide, i always fall short.  Enough of my saga..back to Sundays festivities. After we got the tour, (and i was thinking of Curb ur enthusiasim the whole time), they broke out the bachi balls and i was set for the night. My uncle Phil who still relishes the fact that he threw all 3 of us (me and my 2 bros) in the water when i was  like 7 yrs old was one comment away from losing his title of "King Of The Mountain". but i do love the guy.. and thats some of whats going on in my world.. but i gotta go to sleep now- stay classy.
