sax and violins, minus the sax

I was at a friends flipping around various cable TV channels and just astounded by some of the stuff i was seeing. For example, a man operating a machine gun from the pulpit of a Hummer, sawing a tree stump in half by machine gunning it. Next, video recorded in a prison yard. It was the poor quality, black and white video, synonymous with surveillance cameras mounted in the facility. The video was of a prisoner violently beating another and finally kicking him multiple times in the head. It was strange to see, as most of the violence i see on TV is fake, but this was the disturbing kind you wouldn't want to show your children, or anyone for that matter. Next. CNN, RAPIST MAN HUNT, the text read on the screen. 'Serial attacker on the lose' Nineteen year old girls dead body, slash, remains found... oh that's nice. If it bleeds it leads. I was reminded of this, very funny video from the folks at the Onion. The CNN coverage was strikingly similar to the spoof sadly. Next. Charles Bronson takes his gun from his suit jacket and shoots dead, at point blank range, a black man who was stealing the radio from his car, Oscar material. Next. Mythbusters, this show dispels various myths. Today's episode had the host transporting a barrel of gunpowder as a trail of leaking powder is burning behind him. Ah... yeah (he said quite sarcastically) this 'myth' is from a cartoon. Wow! You've got to be pretty hard up for material, when your dispelling events that have happened to cartoon characters. Perhaps next week they'll drop an anvil on someones head, hopefully theirs. Now that i would tune in to. Lastly i stumbled upon a comedy show, in which some, not very funny material was followed by a recording of people laughing. My friend actually pays for this crap, ouch. I titled this post 'sax and violins, minus the sax' a play on the words, sex and violence. Where is the sex though? I think i would rather see some of that.
