Dear Discovery Channel

Where did you go wrong? When I was young you perked my interest with quirky animals, spectacular glaciers and an endless universe. Now you are plagued with "reality". The worlds deadliest most explosive dirty robots is inspiring no one but future frat boys and over sensationalized couch potatoes. For shame.

Was it the Eco Challenge that corrupted you? Or was it the taste of network TV ratings that pressured you to degrade? Perhaps a single digit channel number was something you were never meant to have.

Alas, it is to public broadcasting that I must return. PBS, perhaps I will pledge money to you next year.

Quote of the Day

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Today I heard an awesome adaptation to suit the current administration:

Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

Nice.

I love the internet...

I just saw an ad for a Christian dating website that claimed it had "Certified Christian" singles. I wonder how the certification process works...
