Who's Fooling Who

Who's Fooling Who?

Bloody murder, wild sex, torture and slime
Scammers and pushers and heinous crime
It's too much to bear
All the evil out there
Except for cable TV at prime time!

Happy to say I'm in the dark here about the last line. Shut off the TV in 1977. Never missed it; never looked back... I was happy with The Jack Benny Show... :) gw

After 1977 there wasn't much good to watch on TV anyway! Good move on your part! Robert

Glad you enjoyed my droll humor. Most people watch on TV what they claim to deplore in real life. Thank you, Len for enjoying! Blessings, Robert

Yes, I've heard it said that when we point our fingers at someone, four fingers are pointing back at us. Thanks, Milt

Yes, a lot goes on, on cable TV that one would have a hard time believing except we know it is happening in real life. Enjoyed reading this one. Sara

It amazes me how we are captivated and wrapped by those things we condemn as harmful and evil. Glad you enjoyed. Robert
