Snippitts of Illusions

we todd ed

so... aparrently the largest sport, though i use the term with mixed feelings, is Nascar.
automobile racing.
it is mainly in the south, and in the rural midwest where this "sport" has taken off so too speak.
now the cars (for it is car racing) have the sponser logos and brand names all over them.
so while the folks watching the racing are hoping for a car wreck, they are being inundated by massive amounts advertising.
while all this serves to dull the wits of the masses and continue the tradition of american commerce, for what would you want to buy after watching cars with cigerrette and beer logos drive around for four hours but beer and cigerrettes, but it also serves to point out just how STUPID we are as a country.
car racing.
number one sport in the country.
a sport that requires a special blend of a good that is now costing us over $3.00 a gallon.
and we are outraged by the price.
but yet, gladly watch automobiles sucking up massive amounts of this precious fuel for our entertainment.
yep.
i don't feel we as a country have any room to complain about the gas prices.
i also think this number one sport should be shut down until they can find a way to do it with out gasoline.
now sure alot of slack jawed rednecks will have to find something else to do on a sunday other than watch cars suck up the stuff that they complain is too high priced.
but it's a small price to pay for the idiots that embrace this rather american passtime.
