OK. I give up. I can't get to too many of your pages, and when I do, I cannot leave a comment. Have been trying unsuccessfully to get to Bills new blogs, but only succeeded in getting to his top page again, where I could not leave a comment. Grrr!!! Tried leaving comments on 2 of Heidi's and one of Pamela's. Like I said, I quit. Snowstorm on its way, and I have to get into town. Love to all, and Happy Thanksgiving to you all. XOXO, Me

The Danger of Dancing.

Good Morning All;
I am not the best person to even have an opinion on "Dancing with the Stars".
(But I do)...

I fully admit that I do not watch this program- I actually cannot remember the last time I watched anything, with the exception of the local news, from start to finish, without recording it first.
Additionally, DWTS is not on my list of those somewhat entertaining, and at times enlightening, recorded items.

Waking this morning, the national news is on in the background as I read over my notes on here, and check my email.
I overhear that Bristolsp? Palin has advanced to another round on the above show.
I believe this is the final? round.

The question arose "should Palin remover herself from the running so as not to endanger herself further?"
"What?"
I remind myself this is a television show... Then, to answer, almost aloud, and almost flippantly, my mind says, "Oh, who cares?"

  - Then I realize that I care.

I care whether or not a young mother is going to put her life in danger because people are stupid enough to think that whether or not she can dance is of monumental political proportions.
I care that her child might be left motherless.
I care that people are ridiculously up in arms about a simple television show.

I don't care if anyone shoots their TV.
I don't care whose kid she is.
I don't care about the fact that I don't even watch this show.
But I damn sure care about her kid.

A short moment later, this question comes to mind-
Haven't the results already been skewed by even ASKING should she step down? Has she not been painted into that proverbial corner- as damned if she quits, and damned if she doesn't?

Just my thoughts... What say you?

XOXO
Me
