There are times when things show up on the news that remind me of my childhood. That happened today when I saw that Evel Knievel died. Instantly my brain started to provide memories of my childhood.

I can remember being a kid and watching Evel on the Wide World Of Sports jumping some outrageous amount of cars or buses lined up in a row. All my brothers and sisters and I would crowd around the TV to see if he would make it or if it would be one of his crazy crashes. I’m sure a few of us were hoping that he’d crash to see him tumble on the asphalt. I also remember when he tried to jump the Snake River Canyon in 1974. I was only ten years old but remember it well. They build up to that jump was a big waste of time for a 30 second jump. Of course he didn’t make it.

Anyway, it’s sad to see him go but his death does bring back some fond childhood memories.

This may be the best new show of the season. Did anyone else see the first episode? I couldn't pull myself away from it! I love it! Don't you agree? It's on Wednesdays at 8:00 PM on ABC. You MUST watch it.

Now that the Donatos have secured their place in the final two, BB8 isn’t even worth watching. I don’t care for either of them so it won’t be a big deal to watch the final episode on Tuesday. Yes, I know, they have been great players and deserve to win but when it gets dominated like this, the show just isn’t any fun anymore. Where’s the drama now? It’s the drama that we all tune in to see each week. It’s over now.

I’ve never liked Elisabeth Hasselback. She’s just stupid and her politics are fucked up. Barbara is old and irrelevant. Whoopi is okay but she’s no Rosie. I think the only reason I’d tune in to see the View is Joy Behar. I like most of her politics and her opinions on topics. The rest of the show sucks. I guess it’s time to take it off my DVR record list.
