RE: 10 hard drive disasters
I think Oprah, The Tonight Show, CNN, The Late Show

It's all about advertising, what would be interesting is just one story from you, once, about how each of your little snippets are about paid endorsements of each of the companies or products featured.

My wife will be watching, "The American Idol" and after 3 minutes they break for 10 minutes of commercials. She comments about they just showed a commercial to which I reply, "That's what pays for the show." It's all about the advertising, it's all about the income, I doubt you would give a rip about idiots dropping laptops from helicopters(there ought to be a law) if you did not get numeration because it was part of an ad, right?

Anyway this is not a rant against advertising, just a little rant on how people worship the celebrities with the shows like Oprah's that, while they may have nice "warm fuzzy stuff" it is all about the money.
