Lovely, lovely Neville Neville's Notes

The Only Opinion That Matters

[See my profile]

  
 

"So OK after several pints of the lovely Blackthorn I am often persuaded to express and elaborate on the burning issues of the moment. As a man who fears nothing (even the wrath of the lovely Terri) I shall in future 'NOTES' repeat and expand on those 11 p.m. debates that have entertained and informed over the past season and in the seasons to come..."
 

Note: Neville can get carried away and write exactly what he thinks so the language used can sometimes veer to the "agricultural" end of the spectrum, you have been warned...
 

 

 

 

Well here we are folks the first edition of Neville's Notes. Never a man to mince my words, for crying out loud what is happening to Joe Public??

I mean ask the average teenager "Who is the leader of the opposition?" and this will be a typical reply "Never heard of em, are they that band whose singer was on Pop Stars?" Ask Mr 2.4 kids what he thinks of the political situation vis-à-vis the Euro and their face goes a funny shade of confused.

Are we becoming a nation of apathetic couldn't give a monkeys morons or is it down to he fact that Joe Public doesn't give a toss unless a situation or problem directly affects them?
Well I'll give you what I think is the real answer -------- TV OVERLOAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yes indeed we are rapidly becoming a nation along with many others of squared eyed, media controlled half-wits whose main concerns are as follows:

1. Who has, will be or is about to commit whatever hideous Eveready crime against humanity to boost a soaps falling rating -- I find it hard to believe that on average 15 million tune in to such mind numbing dross.

2. Can we wolf down our food before the MATCH kicks off? Or will the Mrs let me go and watch with 'THE BOYS' down the pub?

3. If only I could get on it - I could win at least £250,000.

Sit on the bus, stand at the bar, tea break at work and even on the radio in your car, its total bombardment from dawn till dusk and beyond. Who in their right mind really gives a F**K?

Apparently an extremely large % of the population. Sad really isn't it? What's the answer - well to coin a phase from a T.V. Programme of my youth.

"Why don't you switch off your T.V. and go and do something less boring instead?"

Then if you wish to become a media controlled shell of a human - carry on watching. Talking of Carry On - No I'll leave that for another time.

By the way, which bunk do Dot & Jim use for their nuptials?

Keep your brains in gear until the next time.

Neville
