Introduction: Reality Check

Reality Check

 Why does a warning label have to tell us that our Hot Pockets will become HOT when heated? Why are some people far more equal than others? Why do our leaders become mere actors who give people whatever they want in hopes of staying popular? Why do our actors that become popular enough get elected as leaders? Why do environmentalists spend millions of dollars each year to save a few animals when millions of people silently starve to death unnoticed and neglected? Why do bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad ones? Why do we spend so much time working to get that thing we know will make us happy when a single act of kindness can change a stranger’s world?

………......Why am I asking all these rhetorical questions?

 Because reality as we know it is sick and desperately in need of a checkup. This blog is dedicated to not only examining our society but prescribing a little laughter to pass around. After all, laughter is the best medicine. I will be searching out and exploring some of the ridiculous, hilarious, controversial, and horrible aspects of this world. I hope to do more than just brighten your day a little and give you something to forward to your friends and coworkers. I want to challenge the way you see this world and perhaps even challenge you to make it a little better. After all, no one can save the world, but everyone can. Just start small with those around you. You have no idea how far a little kindness can spread.

Dude, its totally working! Its making me laugh!

But! Apparently when I comment on your page, Im not allowed to use contractions--do you know anything about this? Every time I use the apostrophe key I leave the comment box and get bumped to the top of your site. Hence the misuse of its in place of it-apostrophe-s (you know, it is? I cant bring myself to casually write "it is" or "cannot" or "I am"). So deal with it, Mr. English.

Thanks, Romo

This is where I would normally make some comment about how you're using a Macintosh, but we work in an office where the Mac users nearly equal the PC users, so I had better not go there ;)
