thanks to modern advances in publishing and whatnot...

there's an utterly amazing amount of stuff to read and/or watch.

there's a zillion books, a zillion movies, a gazillion blogs, and so
on.

it's absolutely mind-boggling.

what's even more absolutely mind-boggling is how much of it turns out
to be totally redundant idiocy of no value whatsoever.

it's why people spend so much time channel surfing and web surfing.

and even when they finally find something worthwhile to read or watch,
they still somehow end up getting sucked back in to the vast wasteland
of crap, spending precious wasted hours of their time wading thru the
virtual uselessness.

that's why it's often better to just go for a nice healthy walk.

Yer cruel not to think of all of the scribes it put out of work.

HEY! I'll start a charity for them! Yeah! Charity! That's the ticket!

Does "donation" have one (1) "w" or two (2)?
