Back in our day, shows--including those for children--were for all ages and unlike "kid's shows" nowadays, they didn't insult the audience's intelligence by dumbing things down or force viewers into a politically correct bubble!

Note: PC is a joke anyway, considering biases and hatred will forever exist as long as the human right to have an opinion exists, and seeing as there's still shows like "Family Guy" & "South Park" airing on television, "Avenue Q" (an adult version of a certain Street) is free to minors on Broadway, and that The Internet is...well...you know what 90% of it is, there's now not much that'll stop the degrading of the world as we know it!

As such, PC people ARE going after the wrong subject when they blame TV shows (and other entertainment forms) for something preventable that children--who really, aren't mentally or physcially ready to deal with some of the issues involved--these days (unfortunately) know too much about!

And to think this is all because parents can't do their job as parents, because our society has exposed the dark natures within us all and exploits them to the max, and because some people take things too literally/seriously!

Anyway, enough of my rant on the PC world, for here are some of the lessons taught by one of the greatest franchises ever Jim Henson's "Fraggle Rock" and--personally--I advise people to heed them well:

Ecology: Fraggle-Wise

Understanding Societial Connections: Fraggle-Wise

The Ultimate Magic (The Finale): Fraggle-Wise

Come on, dance your cares away, [leave] worries for another day, [and] let the music play...Down at Fraggle Rock, for after all, the franchise is coming back (come 2009 with the movie)!

Enough about the Fraggles, as I now turn attention to a specific Street in New York...

Regarding that place, thanks to political correctness--which I just clarified as a joke--and FCC regulations, everything's NOT A-OK, because the grungy and more realistic side of the place has been washed clean and now, a certain character that we all know is apparently dictator over a prestine perfect facade.

Unfortunately, those in power probably would say yay for false advertising and underlying meanings, which is the theme of today's post & the message shown in the moden version of a cherished program!

In my honest opinion, if the show continues its facade any longer, people will start to get wise to it!

As for me, I would definately rather be playing in the decayingly run-down gaming arcade next to the Fix-It Shop (which is right across from Hooper's Store) than deal with issues as they are now.

After a long illustrious career, we say farewell to a legend among legends, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair.

In his parting address, the whole of WWE showed up, along with Flair's family and the Four Horsemen.

Four words sum up everything "The Niatch" has done for the business...

Thank You Ric!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*plays Flair's theme in tribute*

Though I am still keeping watch over my stuff (and will continue to do so until the matter is resolved), I figured I'd list my 'Mania predictions, as this weekend IS Wrestlemania (Sat. with the Hall of Fame ceremony & Sun. with the Pay-Per-View itself).

During the course of the whole thing, I believe that Triple H will reclaim his WWE throne (as the current champ has been made to look weak throughout the fued and that the other challenger is set to make yet another WWE film), Undertaker will maintain his streak to get the illustrious reign he was promised, Mr. Kennedy [Kennedy] will cash in on his guarantee to win Money in the Bank (as no one else in the match has been hyped as much for it and that no one else in the match is ready to really step up yet), Shawn Micheals will--hopefully gracefully--retire one of the greatest of all-time in Ric Flair (considering Niatch is going into the political arena later this year), Ashley & Maria will strut their stuff against the heels of the Women's Division (who've done nothing to gain the upper hand) to garner a victory for cover girl fans everywhere, Mr. McMahon will undoubtably involve himself in the personal JBL/Finlay brawl to probably give the treacherous New York-based Texas turncoat an unfair playing field, Batista will sadly defeat Umaga to move their fued permenantly to Smackdown! if the Samoan Bulldozer makes the transition as rumored, Kane will hopefully win the 20-man battle royale (as all the rest of the participants don't deserve to be anywhere near a belt in the near future) for a shot at the third-tier belt and emerge at the end of the title match as victor, and finally, The Rock has come back to the WWE--if ya smell what The Rock is cookin'--to induct his family into the Hall of Fame.

Now, this blog's to be posted in regards to that fire alarm sounding off at 2: 30 a.m. this morning (March 25, 2008 ).

What's got me freaked and worried is that it turns out that the alarm going off was no horseplay amongest residents. The alarm was set off at the Complex Maintenance Shop to cover up a theft that went on there. Items stolen include a maintenance cart, hand tools, radios, and--the topper--keys to each room in the Complex.

Thankfully, as a precaution, the staff at the college will be re-keying all room locks to ensure safety, but even so, I don't really feel too secure now when I (and the staff themselves) know that the process would take a few days to complete & by then, things precious to me--like my DVD collection, videogame console, and the very laptop among which I am typing this--could be jacked by the idiots who did this terrible deed.

The last of which is what I am most fearful of being stolen as it not only cost a arm and a leg to get, but that without it, my online life at my college would be nothing (as the school's computers are for student use only and not for personal use & enjoyment and the college personnel highly enforce this ruling) and my online life period would be nothing...until I go home to visit family and even then, it would be nothing, as I wouldn't be able to be on as much as I would like to, which would keep me from all the friends I've made online.

Apparently, I was tagged.

Whoopie--freakin'--doo!
