I just wanted to let you know that the rush to show disgusting things on TV while I’m eating has not abated.
I have what is referred to as a queasy stomach. That’s French for “passes out at the sight of blood.” It didn’t take too long to realize that the TV was doing it on purpose. No matter what I’m watching, be it a comedy, news, or documentary, there will be something disgusting on TV.
Over the weekend, I saw a fascinating documentary about some island spots near Spain. As I’m eating a sandwich, they’re slitting the throats of goats.
Tonight I had a particularly good piece of chocolate cheesecake. Right in the middle was a news segment on pit bulls, complete with all sorts of injuries displayed while the dog was used for bait as a fighting dog. His shoulders were torn out, etc, etc.
I am positive that if I located a show on public television about joining a nunnery, it would be the first nunnery ever to do open-heart surgery.
