ALTERNATIVE PROGRAMMING
Isn't it fascinating that even though there is so much killing going on in the world today that somehow we would find a way increase the horror and tragedy of death-again most likely in the name of dollars and cents that don't even belong to us?
Just think about the new uses for old items. Remember that refrigerated semi truck that used to send unhealthy food to your local fast food dump? Now we are using those vehicles to store body bags of people who passed away without saying goodbye to their families or even knowing where the hell they were when they shook off this mortal coil.
Remember that old smelly handkerchief that we found while cleaning our parents or grandparents house? Now we are using them to cover our pieholes and snouts when we go into our retail stores and perhaps even those houses of ill repute.
Remember that artisan ale you and your trendy friends would go out to drink during weekends when you should have been at home with your wife and kids? Now that alcohol is used to manufacture giant batches of hand sanitizer that turns your hands into pasty white paddles.....but in a good way.
And for all of you misanthropes and others who actually believe that 'hell is other people'? Well, I suppose you're in heaven now. But there are still others who don't 'know' that any of this is even taking place. They believe that everything I just described above is completely fabricated. Maybe some of them are the same people that don't believe in the Holocaust but can't resist telling their friends and neighbors what actually is happening around them according to the tabloids.
Is the power to believe stronger than the power of disbelief? When does 'I can't believe what is happening' become 'I steadfastly refuse to believe what is happening'? Please don't tell me when you know.
