Quote heard coming from the Smartfella 7 times last night as he suffered through the Nightly News Shows, “Yee Gads! Not another poll!”
I can’t help myself. The current presidential campaign is covering us up in Polls. Heck, they are reporting to us the results of Polls About Other Polls. Too bad they have not taken to heart the advice I gave them 5.5 years ago.

How Long Is A 60 Minute News Show?
I, for one, am very tired of the 24/7 News Cycle. I am, however, not one to say that’s the way is has to be. I am a Fighter but most of all I am a Thinking Fighter and I have come up with a fool proof way to address this awful situation.
I am, here and now, proposing the way to cut any current 60 Minute News show down to 30 minutes! It is so simple that you, my dear readers, are going to kick your collective selves for not thinking of it ahead of me.
I am not so shallow as to just lay those saved 30 minutes on the trash bin of history. I am concurrently proposing that the time gained be filled in by showing reruns of any of the following…
- Amos ‘n Andy
- The Ozzie & Harriet Show
- Amos ‘n Andy
- The Lone Ranger
- Amos ‘n Andy
If you have never had the pleasure of watching any of the above shows, I feel sorry for you.
I take that back. I don’t feel sorry for you because you have a lot of viewing pleasure lying in front of you.
If, after watching any of them, you say you don’t like what you have watched, I will then feel sorry for you for sure.
Would I kid u?

Good Morning: Well you were right in 2011 and still right but Maybe Amos and Andy, Long Ranger and Ozzie & Harriet don’t meet the current test for speech. Have to get the big o’s opinion on their constitutional protection or lack thereof.
I am with you Brother...............
