So it turns out you can buy a home in Gary Indiana for one dollar. Now I think that is still one million dollars too many to live in Gary Indiana however if the Jimmy McMillan and his Rent is too Damn High people want to relocate to a lower rent area Grow the Fuck Up will cover the first ten purchases for them.
It's a small price to pay to get that annoying asshole out of New York and hell if Grow the Fuck Up can afford to hire a Wayne Fontes to cover the NFL we can do this service to New York. If sending the Rent is Too Damn High people to Indiana doesn't qualify for the Nobel Peace Prize then I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

I Don't Want to Live on This Planet Anymore
So it's late and I was just about to attempt to fall asleep when I came across an article from last week about a show that was deemed "Too educational for Children's Television". This was to be expected considering what passes for educational television on the Learning Channel or that the Discovery Channel is trying to compete with SyFy in regards to Shark based programing.
I mean if Big Ten Universities teach Zombie Survival for Social Work credit because to quote the professor who created the class "I've been in education a couple of decades and the biggest complaint I've heard from kids is, 'Education is boring!' " then why should we be surprised that children's television shouldn't be too educational. You wouldn't want preschoolers to be better educated than upper level college students would you?
I guess it might as well be time to start teaching creationism in schools and move these exhibits to the Smithsonian.
Just be careful because dumbing down entertainment can have dire consequences. When this becomes a reality humanity will only have itself to blame.
