     I finally understand what's happening.

     Oh, they were tricky devils. They played it really close to the vest. But I'm on to them. First it was Survivor, and then Big Brother. These shows drew crowds, and raves and rants from folks that said they were nothing but overstressed people in situations that were anything but real.

     So the networks figured out how to pull one over our eyes. Reality TV at its finest.

     You think it's just coincidence that the election heated up right after Big Brother finished? No way. If you think that, then you probably think nothing of the fact that the inauguration will happen just as Survivor II hits the little screen. There is no such thing as coincidence, folks. It's too close to call. No, it's Gore, no, it's too close to call, no, it's Bush, no it's .... This race is brought to you by ....

     And people said reality TV had hit its low point with Big Brother.

     Sheesh.


        


     Once again, "Searching for Ghandi" nears its conclusion.

     We shall see. We shall see.


        


     Have a great day.
