Food for Thought, think as you watch tv

Food For Thought
Think AS You Watch TV
By Michael Casey ©
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As we sit in our armchairs watching the news , do we care what is going on over there , insome place hot , too hot to think about , or too cold to bear , ice and snow everywhere . Are we just waiting for the sports report , are we waiting to see was the battle hard or a walkover, did our favorite player score a home run , or 10 touchdowns , were the crowd , the audience behind him , did we win 100dollars from the bet we had on the side . In the
interviews after the war was won , were we just watching to see the design on the teams
shirt , is that a new logo , is that the same logo spruced up . Or is it a new logo entirely ,
does it make any difference in how the team played , or just another million dollars in the owners pocket , paid by us the audience , the fans , just so we can all look so identical . The reporters are screaming loudly , half excited and half in fear , they want to watch , they want to cover their eyes , but they are there so they must report . Are they in some arid desert , or in some cold cold place , pain and fear and hope etched on their face , are they in some war zone , or at the stadium , if all we heard were just their words , could we tell the difference , do we care , so long as we can switch it all off with our remote control .

Just a little food for thought , you can read my Betting On Disaster later
