We laughed a Saturday Night Live and loved Boston Legal, not to mention John Stuart. But yesterday as I walked by the TV room, I heard Ann muttering something that indicated she was getting seriously roused up---no it wasn't a porno because we can't get it. I think our kids put some kind of blocker on that---a heart attack prevention thing. She was actually talking to herself or to the TV seeming to agree with something.
"Oh wow, that's how that goes." she exclaimed. After few minutes, while sitting at my stinking computer trying to see if we had any stocks left after the afternoon massacre, I again heard rumblings and sounds of excitement. My God, was John Elway back in football. The woman was intent and glued to the damn thing. I dashed in and there on the tube was a couple of women knitting and jabbering about pearling and some other action packed event involving needles and yarn.
What next?" I thought. I mean, knitting on TV! There was an entire channel devoted to knitting and other needle things. An entire station! It is bad enough that there are endless programs that do nothing but talk about Jesus day in day out and then what money.
I remembered there is a new yarn shop in town. Life in America
