I am a talk radio news junkie, at least until the lunchtime news is over. I can't stand the venom the afternoon guy spews. Yesterday morning the Morning Talk Show Guy was taking calls about the most irritating piece of news; he called it The Outrage of the Day. He read the news story of disgraced CEO of Lehman Brothers, Dick Fuld, who sold his $13M+ home for $10, to his wife! He was headed to a civil lawsuit and was quick to divest himself of any assets that the lawsuit might demand.
This guy, Fuld, has been called in print a 'financial terrorist'. Remember, he was one of the first in line at the bailout window. He drove his company into the ground and made off like a bandit, then this?!
I was so furious I had to shut off the radio. Good thing I found the Classic Rock station. I needed a little old school head banging to make myself feel better.
What is this world coming to? How far will be have to go before the Apocalypse? It makes me, almost, wish for the Second Coming just to watch some of these narcissistic, delusional, self-entitled, out-of-touch-with-reality, corporate pirates torched and turned to dust. How do they live with themselves?! I get a nickel too much in change and I have to take it back to the store.
OK, now I need to go do some deep, cleansing breathing just so I don't want to take out my carpool kids today. Or maybe, I just need to stick with the Classic Rock station and bypass talk radio all together. Ohhhmmm. Oooohhhhhmmmmmm.

Dude - I would pick rock music any day over some of the negative stuff I get off the news and radio. Rock on sister!
Okay, but you must stay a movie-show junkie! What kills me is how they also say in this down economy how people are saving money and paying off bills-the horror! I have little problem in why bad things happen to good people and a much bigger problem with why good things seem to happen to bad people. Too many slimeballs seem to be rewarded-here's hopin karma is on its' way!
