Why America?

I heard that the premiere of Two and a half Men had 28 millions viewers! Which I find is ridiculous...out of those 28 millions I would assume I knew at least one, but no one I know watches that show. How are there so many people out there watching this trash? (It may be due to my new arch nemesis Ashton Kutcher joining the show....well played Ashton, you win this round.) But in reality I find it sad that the show gets 28 millions viewers with how terrible it is. My favorite show Parks and Recreation apparently only gets 6 millions viewers (source Wikipedia, the only place with real facts!).

Knowing these statistics I have just one question.

WHY AMERICA!!!???!

Why does such a terrible show get those kinds of ratings. I heard it is up there with an American Idol premiere in terms on ratings.....HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN!?!? (Lots of yelling today, or maybe my music is too loud, so I feel I have to shout.)

I saw that lots of CBS shows get high ratings....to which I wonder again, how come I do not know a single one their viewers?

Anyway, let's change the course here and talk about how excited I am for the season premiere of Parks and Rec tomorrow night.

What a great cast.

I am excited to see where the show goes this season. If you do not watch the show, you should. It is hilariously funny, each character brings their own uniqueness to the show and they mesh very well together. Every show usually has a character or a few that brings it down....not Parks and Rec, even their seldom used characters add to the show.

The only negative might be with so many characters they, the less Andy Dwyer fun there is. Andy started the show with two broken legs falling into "the pit" which Leslie (Amy Poehler) made her goal to fill in in season one of the show.

We are about to start season four of Parks and Rec, and I hope it continues for many seasons hereafter as long as they keep up with their comedic gold they have been handing out.

I would hope you might check out Parks and Rec tomorrow night and every week from until it is over.

I leave you with Ron Swanson's Pyramid of Greatness he shared with us when he was coaching a children's basketball team, which I will use in my coaching opportunities from here on out.

Quick Thoughts


  • Lots of great musicians releasing new albums lately. Ben Rector last week, and now Gungor and NeedtoBreathe this week. Not enough music budget for me right now.
  • Knox Mccoy didn't give us our Monday Morning Meatloaf today....could make for a long week without it.
  • Mizzou plays at Oklahoma this week. I feel like Mizzou really got the short end of the stick with this one year of scheduling we will have in the Big 12 minus 2 minus 1.
  • With Pitt and Syracuse gone to the ACC, The Big 12 should go after TCU, Louisville, and Cincinatti to replace nebraska, Colorado, and A&M. Would make sense geographically and 3 decent teams in football, and 2 in basketball. Too bad this realignment has nothing to do with geography and rivalries though. And too bad the Big 12 is done for for realz now. See ya Texas, OU, Okie St, and Tech apparently.
  • I need to get my mom on the internet so I can double my amount of blog readers. (Shout out to my wife, Miriam for being my avid reader!!!)
  • Gonna be a busy week work wise. Got lots of two job days this week, hopefully I stay sane, and keep up with the dishes, my arch nemesis.
  • I asked Tyler Tarver who should be my new arch nemesis as I was in need of one. He went with Ashton Kutcher and girls sticking their tongues out in photos. Kutcher I can make happen. But dirty dishes might beat out girls sticking their tongues out for now.
  • Ashton Kutcher could be a great arch nemesis, but he might be making it too easy for me with his recent look (see below) and joining bad sitcoms.
  • We are gonna make our 1st chili of the season this week. Kind of excited about it.
  • Also not too excited because it means it snows soon here. We have had a couple overnights with frost already.
  • I am gonna try to make Seen Now Shared a weekly post on Thursday's. Could be hard when I find some good stuff. I already have enough for this week.
  • Speaking of posts, trying to think of more stuff with good content to distract myself with. I just love quick posts too much...like this one.
Kutcher!!!! At least make it difficult for me.
