Just Pull the Plug

A man and his wife are sitting in the living room and he says to her, "Just so you know, I never want to live in a vegetative state dependent on some machine. If that ever happens, just pull the plug."


His wife gets up and unplugs the TV.

Dancing With the Stars

I have no idea why I like Dancing With the Stars so much. I don't know if it because of the glitzy clothes, ballroom dancing itself, the fact that they become so good so quickly, a combination of all of that, or because I'm living vicariously. I don't know why I like the show, but I do. During its season, I watch it every Monday and Tuesday evenings. If I have to, I will record it and watch it later. But, I'd rather not.


So, in 25 days, the new season will be upon us. They have announced the new contestants. Now, I'm not much of a celebrity fan. I won't be applauding one celebrity over another because of who they are. (So, I won't even mention here who they are.) As the season passes, I will start favoring a few -- because of how they dance and how they act. Their personality will probably sway me the most -- if they are any good, that is.


I seem to be alone around here in my love of this show, though. I usually watch it alone. I wish I had a group like Chatting At the Sky does for So You Think You Can Dance. How fun is that? So, if any of you readers live in my vicinity, maybe we can have a Dancing With the Stars party. Complete with party food. And fun. And laughing. Have I tempted anybody yet?

And maybe watching it with someone else will motivate me to actually vote!
