Old Post #10-Pet Peeve #2-I Think Bill O'Reilly Yells Way Too Much-What Say You?
OK. It's 5:30am. I'm working my awake overnight shift, and the Mountain Dew's worn off. I can't think straight, or I'd re-read some Harry Potter or check out today's newspaper that just arrived. The kids aren't up yet, although I hear rustling in their tents. I can't watch any more infomercials about getting rich quick or male enhancement. So I'm giving Mr. O'Reilly a try. Watching 'The Factor', that is. Now old Bill seems quite bright. And he's infinitely charming to his female guests. Sorry, ladies-he's married!But what's with all the screaming?! I mean, according to you guys, Fox is #1 in cable news, and I see no reason to doubt this assertion. So can't you afford some microphones and speak in soft, soothing tones since you're all sitting right there next to each other? Hey-Maybe the president wants to raise taxes too much.Perhaps the war in Afghanistan is time and money well spent.And heck, all those people you think hate you are probably as crazy as you say!But I gotta be honest-when people shout at each other, part of me wants to roll up in a ball on the floor by the office fax machine and suck my thumb. I guess I hear too much of that in my apartment building and at the bus stop. And don't get me started on my childhood!So could you lower the volume just a hair for old Shaw once in a while, Sir? Thanks a lot. And God bless America!
