Does anyone else find texting as pointless as I do?

maximumgravity1 @maximumgravity1 (245) • United States 19 Nov 10

Why is it that when I watch old episodes of "The Muppet Show" on YouTube, I remember laughing at the same episodes when I was a kid. I laugh just as hard today. My kids also laugh as hard, and so do my friends and my kids...

CBS execs stupid for putting The Big Bang Theory on Thursday night?

maximumgravity1 @maximumgravity1 (245) • United States 11 Nov 10

In general, here is my beef: CBS programing Execs are just not "getting it" by putting Big Bang Theory on Thursday Nights. I believe this hearkens back to the time that "Must See TV" was coined when Friends, Seinfeld, Frasier,...
