Poor Jay.........

Is anybody watching Jay Leno? Not me. But then, I didn't before. Not that I don't think he's an amusing, innocuous guy. If I were him, though, I'd be rather insulted NBC doesn't care much about his show, that they figure as long as they get the minimal rating numbers they'll still come out ahead over airing another more expensive to produce show, or yet another reality program. Then again, no doubt Mr. Leno has considered all this and could care less, too. He's got all the money, cars, and motorcycles a person could want, so he's laughing all the way to the bank.

I'm frankly afraid to watch after being traumatized by seeing one of his "jay walking" segments once. When young people failed to answer questions any 2nd grader knows and acted so unrepentantly pleased by their ignorance, it frightened the hell out of me and reminded me that these folks walk among us. The bubble over their heads might as well have been, 'Hey, at least I'm on TV!' (well, yeah, but you just embarrassed the s---t out of your parents and your former 2nd grade teacher is getting fired somewhere). When did stupidity become 'cool?' Fortunately, most of the folks I saw were young and fit, so I'm hoping these were the same brainiacs featured in the 'Girls Gone Wild' videos. I'm just saying...
