When Good TV Goes Bad

Now that the Trash TV is over for the summer and we've rented all the episodes of 24, I've had to go back to watching PBS*. Last night Nature showcased the Rainforest. I am all for the Rainforest. Up with Rainforests. But, not so much the Eye Juice Sucking Moths that live in the Rainforest. Isn't it bad enough that Moths (further known as M****) eat wool?

A Special about the Mount Saint Helen's Volcanic Eruption followed Nature. It was very informative, showing the horrifically catastrophic events that concluded with the eruption in 1980.

All this supposed Educational Television did was keep me up at night worrying about Eye-Juice-Sucking-Parasitic M****, and horrendous Volcanic Eruptions.

I can't wait for more Trash TV.

*To offset my ingratitude, I do have many positive things to say about PBS. Especially since the Government Funding will come to an end and they will need those donations now more than ever. Do you think they will accept hand sewn items in lieu of cash donations? Globe Trekker is the best all time PBS Show. Except for the episodes of Antique Roadshow when the Uppity People think their kitsch is worth a hundred million dollars and they find out live on tv it's worth 10 American Cents. Also, Are You Being Served is an exceptionally good Brit-com.

I Still Knit! I am not obsessed with sewing, I can quit anytime I want to.
I'm very close to finishing the Husbands Second Sock. I'll probably cast on for some new socks with the beautiful yarn Susie sent my way. My newest "dream" project is the Twist Front Top from the Adrienne Vittadini 2005 Spring Collection. Yarn for the project has yet to be determined.

I still Garden too.

Please avert your eyes from the Yellow Tomato Leaves. I will work on my overwatering thumb pronto.
