The problem with celebrities is name repetition. I miss the old days when I was ignorant of the fact that Billy Ray Cyrus had even reproduced. There I go. I miss the old days when I had never heard of Billy Ray Cyrus. Why do we have to use his middle name anyways?
I haven't watched TV since the mid-eighties. That really cuts down on the contamination of the brain by celebrities.

Yes, but one could also ignore music to avoid being polluted by the crap blaring in the record (sic) store or ignore the much-vaunted books to avoid being polluted by seeing the DaVinci Code displayed in the bookstore. 95% (at least) of art is total crap, and I'm afraid television is an art form. You missed out on Seinfeld?? I'm sorry. There are artists and there are celebrities. I hate the lowest common denominator, but it will always rule the world. Right? Somebody please tell me I'm wrong.
The second panel cracked me up.
Thank god I ruined my son with Todd Rundgren, Cheap Trick, Kiss And the Beatles. Emperor's new clothes, anyone??
