And Surveillance UFO's Too!

Victor Hugo Passes My Test To Host Late Night Talk Shows

I know this is an amazing story but Leno and Letterman and some more FBI crazies have employed a small mobile surveillance system to monitor me.  Next time it approaches my back porch I'll take a slingshot shot at it--SERIOUSLY!  When I was siitting down to write this blog around eleven pm it slowly approached my apartment.  Don't do it again! 

Meanwhile Letterman, Leno, Kotb, and Olbermann have tried EVERY episode of we didn't do ANYTHING stupid so try this stupid theme on for size, AGAIN.  Have you wondered that late night is for mostly the gratification of DUMB talk show hosts.  Jimmy Fallon is the only host on after 11:30 PM that has a clue that school was for something and not for nothing.  Tell Dave and Jay their teachers were actually trying to interest them in books and thoughts and not eighth-grade pranks and foolishness.

Could you imagine Letterman or Leno reading Shakespeare on the air or even in real life.  Or maybe Victor Hugo is a Christmas gift for Dave and he unwraps Les Miserables.  What on earth would he do with it?! He can't read it because it would unravel the act which is his show.  He can't  be seen as acting intelligent because he always told and still tells jokes about logic. He can't EVEN tell jokes about it because he KNOWS how dumb he'll look.  So how is he on tv and what does he call that act?

Just seeing that picture of Victor Hugo makes me feel real good after talking about Leno and Letterman who frustrate me to no end. They're the ones who didn't take any thoughts with them from earnest and well-meaning teachers.  If talk show hosts were required to read TO COMPLETION great works of literature like Les Miserables tv would CEASE to be a wasteland of teenagers (and grownups too).  As an eigth-grade student I had a reading class which naturally was focused on books.  I can relate a few stories about that class but most noteworthy was my reading teacher Mrs. Robinson who gave us a handout at some point in that class which I held onto for many years until I misplaced it in my mid-thirties.  The handout was a list of I guess eight pages of famous and important books throughout the ages.  As a college student I referred to the list and I guess I've read perhaps two dozen of the books on the list.  Some of the books were stifling and difficult to read and some were more rewarding immediately.  You have to fight the urge to be like Dave and Jay.  They're doing you no favors.

It pays to listen to your teacher when he or she tries to help you.  You should listen.
