CSI

One of my favorite TV shows is CSI (Crime Scene Investigation). We don't watch a lot of TV around here, the news daily and I'll watch CSI when I remember it is on and my DH watches Stargate Atlantis when he remembers it is on.

My son also really likes CSI and wants to be an investigator when he is older.

There are two spinoff shows from CSI - CSI New York and CSI Miami.

Now CSI New York isn't bad - it stars Gary Sinise after all :)

But I do not, for the life of me, understand why CSI Miami is still on the air! The lead in that show, David Caruso, is known for his overacting. I think I have watched the entire show once and it was pure torture. It is SO phony that is isn't funny. There are a ton of videos on Youtube making fun of him.

It is like a parody of the real CSI. Even the story lines don't make a lot of sense. And the crimes are always solved but not always explained.

I believe, it has the same writers as the original CSI, but maybe not - if it does, maybe they only write the Miami version after downing a dozen beer - hey maybe doing so would make the show more enjoyable to me too :)

Something I feel I have to mention (rantish:))

I was just on a young woman's blog. She is 16, Christian and black. Her entire blog was written about all that is wrong in the world. How the blacks are being misunderstood. How people are going against Christianity. How she finds blatant homosexuality disgusting. How she was bothered by....blah blah blah it want on and on and on!

I am not black, I can only assume the racism they have to put up with.

But she is 16! She comes across as a bitter old fishwife. I know there are plenty of things to complain about in this world. Don't get me started, because I probably could not stop. That is why I don't start.

It is not my job, nor her's to judge anyone. Whether Christian or not - it is not our job. I don't understand why people have not yet figured that out, that the only, the ONLY person you can change is yourself.

If there is something in the papers that bothers you - stop reading the paper. Complaining about it is unlikely to change anything.

I read through several posts on her blog, and no I will not post the blog here, I don't want her getting hate mail or anything - but I just found it so very very sad - that this girl at age 16 had nothing good to post about. Nothing in her life that was exciting or happy? She should be reveling in the wonder of life. While she seemed intelligent, she was also extremely biased.

Why can't we all just get along :) (I had to stick that in there) - why can't we accept other's differences and go on our own way.

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Voicing your opinions on homosexuality, on feminism (or lack thereof), on what a pop star does or does not do, will never change things. If everyone spent as much time working on themselves as they do criticizing others, we may have a much happier world.

Time goes by so quickly, why waste precious moments being hateful to others that are unlike you?

Ok rant over - constructive criticism, as always, welcome - flaming not.
