Review of NPR and Time Magazine
There
ain’t a whole heck of a lot of media that I like lookin’ at. Tell you the
truth, there ain’t a whole heck of a lot of anything that I like lookin’ at,
‘cept maybe for a freshly-murdered raccoon in a trap or one of those naked
girls in them motorcycle magazines.
Ever since one of
my good “seeing eyes” got gouged out by that college boy and his
fraternity brothers, I’ve tried my mightiest to preserve my
looking abilities. But a man’s gotta eat some bread, and the
only way to do that is by making a little bread on the side, the
green kind I mean, the kind with dead presidential mug shots on
‘em. And the only way to make that stuff is by working
hanky-panky dead end jobs like this one, looking at crap that
people tell me is called "media" and then saying what I think about it.

about me reading, so screw off! Take me or leave me. Mind your own damn
business! |
Well, yesterday I went down to
the newsstand on the corner for the first time and decided to pick me up one
of these media son-of-a-guns. When I got there, the prices were incredibly
outrageous, so I could only buy one magazine.
There was one with some combat
soldier on the cover holding a big ol’ gun, so I grabbed that one. On the way
home, I remembered that the radio sometimes has somebody sayin’ something
about news or what-not, so I turned that mug up and listened to a little NPR,
which is what I think they called themselves.
To say it bluntly, that
magazine, the Times Magazine I think it was called (piece of crap name
in my opinion, ‘cause there weren’t a single watch advertisement in that
entire thing) did a lot of appealing to my one good eye because of all them
pictures of soldiers and dead people.
There was this one part towards
the back with a woman in her bra and this other lady woman touching her titty,
and in some way it had something to do with cancer, but a woman with titties
that good-looking couldn’t really have anything wrong with her if you ask me.
Unfortunately, it did have a
bunch of words and I wasn’t really liking that too too much, but you see,
that’s what I did like about that radio station. All I had to do was
sit there and listen to it and there wasn’t a thing to read. But them women
were pretty boring and all they talked about was a bunch of nonsense about
Bush signing some stuff that I’d never heard about and how some political
something-or-another meant more money for something else, and after about ten
minutes I turned that stuff off and listened to some Moody Blues instead.
So, in the
end, I don’t know which is my favorite. The radio in my car went out last
night so I can’t really listen to any of that mumbo jumbo again, and I used
that magazine to wrap some rabbit meat in and freeze it. I did, however, cut
out that heavy-chested woman and I’m gonna pin her up at the huntin’ cabin
this weekend, so I don’t know, maybe there was a clear winner after all.
