so, being the information junkie that i am, i always have cnn.com open in a tab on every machine i touch as well as the cnn.com application for my blackberry. so tonite, not unlike any other night, i am replying to emails and checking weather and bootlegging music, when i open my cnn.com tab. and on the homepage under latest news there is a headline about the naked cowboy and his lawsuit against Mars’s Candy
Inc or M&M’s. this story isnt something new and breaking, but the development has been.
so i naturally roll my eyes and keep scanning, and just above this story about a naked cowboy is a story about a pregnant soldier being found dead in a motel room.
my question is, since when is a person who would sacrifice not only their life but the life of their unborn child for our country (a seemingly uncaring and frivolous one at that) as important as a man who plays the guitar in his skivvies in new york even in the same realm of importance?
what is the human race coming to where we are so desensitized to violence that we can casually read the news and potentially be effected in the same way to a pregnant woman being killed as we can be by a guy suing a candy giant because they created an m&m who might resemble him if he too was a blue peanut m&m.
so my question is, does he at least wear pants to court? i think he might loose cred if he does. i mean, come on, how can you not take this guy seriously?
what the hell is going on?
