NOW: AN UPDATE FROM THIS WEEK!

I am calling off the Boycott of NBC's Office. I appreciate everyones support. Now the reality:

I WAS BEING SARCASTIC, and I really didn't go to the hospital. Our local NBC affiliate removed "The Book of Daniel" from the air last Friday night because of supposed negative response from viewers. The problem with that is that most of the complaints were from people who never saw the show, but simply listened to someone else (who probably didn't see the show) and got irate. It amazes me how we as a culture (both sides and everyone) use sound-byte mentality to invest our stances, beliefs and morals. "As long as so and so says it, it must be true!"

I've written alot on this blog about the collective consciousness of insanity that is so willing to lease out our very minds and souls to someone just because of who they are (preacher, politician, boss, whatever). The sarcastic "Boycott of NBC's The Office," was another way for me to point this out, in relation to NBC's controversy related to "The Book of Daniel."

Bye the way, does anyone know when "Book of Daniel" will be on DVD? I want to see it. But, because of a bunch of fools, I don't have access in Nashville.

I love life in Tennessee. Here are some thoughts and highlights from this week that I have experienced:

* One day snow, next three days sun and 70 degrees. Today it is raining. Hmmm.

* Racism, prejudice and hate exist. They always will until we move to a better place in our individual and collective minds. Mostly perpetuated by subtle humor amongst people who just think they are being funny, it is high time these issues become scars and not open wounds.

If you worship with a congregation, have groups of friends, or just simply commune with the workplace I encourage you to discover who we are. We are not created to hate. And, sin is not an excuse.

* The Memphis Grizzlies have dropped 4 in a row. They are in a bit of a slump, but will come out of it.

* My ballroom dancing is progressing. I have a very cool teacher, and am actually getting good at a few of the dances like Cha Cha and Waltz.

* The media business is good in Nashville. It is interesting to see the ebb and flow of how people approach the success or failure of their businesses. It is interesting to see who businesses are willing to ask patronize them, and why.

Enjoy a peaceful weekend!
