Tatostrophe

woke up this morning with

my afro in my eye and my

friendly neighborhood pharmacy said "hi."

It's a damned shame when

the comedians of our time are doing

the best job at news reporting

Hi.

 I thought I'd begin my electroranting by talking about Chris Hansen. That wasn't the original plan, but a new episode of "TO CATCH A PREDATOR" is on right now.

I don't know where NBC got this guy from, but he is incredible! He has single-handedly made himself the High-Priest of Pedophilic Television!  So many of these episodes have been broadcast until the jackasses who prey on kids are mentioning the broadcast in their explicit emails!

     "I don't wanna get caught on television, k?"

Or... we start to see this exchange:

     "There's something you need to know. I'm Chris Hansen of Dateline NBC"

     "Uh... I know. How you doin'? Am I on? I know I'm gonna get arrested now. Can I give a shout out to my mom?"

Clearly, NBC's decision to bask in the Nielsen glow of dirtbags-on-film has gone way beyond concern for potential victims of child predators. The show has morphed into a kind of twisted, 'SURVIVOR' - type reality show for these nuts. They are even starting to bring their friends for group appearances!

Let's see -- tonight, they are trying to survive in Long Beach. Where might they go next? Are the predators getting their tv arrests on TiVO?  Do you realize that there have been more child predators showcased on NBC than black actors?

There is one show I do have respect for in the 'to-catch-a' genre. It's the one where my man Hansen explores the world of 419 scammers. We like to call it, TO CATCH AN  AFRICAN. Unlike the slaves of the African Diaspora, THESE characters DESERVE to be whipped and chained!  I mean -- it's not so muuch theat they are tearing greedy, desparate and otherwide unsuspecting Americans a new asshole with streams of sacreligious, sewage-laden spam; it's that they are doing it in unwindowed Internet 'cafes', on Commodore 64s!! 

You think for all that keyboard kvetching, they would pave a few of their roads with the spoils of their ill-begotten gains. Hmph!
