The Pre-summer Report

We're in the pre-stages of summer now, (it only starts after Memorial Day) and things look about the same as they do every summer. The weather at least right now is still rather awful with temperatures below 70. I had crazy dreams last night, which caused me to wake up 3 times. That's not fun. Of course, the dreams went mostly unremembered except for these things.

In one of the dreams, I do not get my diploma from high school, I instead move to Erie and get my diploma there. I think in another dream, I rip the SRU women's basketball team. They promptly get mad me and scorn me. In the third dream I'm hanging out with kids from high school and I have to put out a grease fire in the kitchen. I don't know why that happened, but I like to sleep soundly every now and again. Hopefully tonight won't be that bad.

I've seen some of the previews for summer TV this year and it's about the same as always. A mix of good and pretty stupid shows. (Thanks Fox) I saw a show that is giving 80s one-hit wonders a second chance at stardom and I tell you, that might be a show worth checking into. 80s fans like myself who liked Loverboy and A Flock of Seagulls will be intrigued to see them perform their hit on TV. In another show celebrities battle each other with professional dancers. I think Evander Holyfield is on this and this could be incredibly funny to watch once. The third show I've seen is on Fox called "Hell's Kitchen" This looks really pathetic. Basically think of it as American Idol in a Kitchen. Apparently, the chef is supposed to be real mean or something. And the host turned out to be pretty much insane. I think it will eventually get cancelled. At least I hope so. Fox sure hopes it is decently successful. That is sure good. Summer television is absolutely pure crap. No wonder nobody watches it.

Speaking of American Idol, I will say I am not a fan. Basically having the same concept is getting old. Paula Abdul flailing her arms as a judge is just sad. Simon is the only true good constant of the show because he's honest and not here to please the public. So that' s all everybody. Peace and Chicken Grease.
