tubers

surveying cable media. Nixon, Clinton, news anchors, auto wrecks, fires, and shopping, media about media, that self-reflexive idolatry seems to be a fave. gripping mellerdrammer, my father used to say. as he would pause for a minute in the room where the teevee was located, some of the family potatoed out long before consumers were tubers. jeep adventures, rally sport. things that SUV’s will never do in suburbia. mediation. cut, cut, cut. ad. cut. dumb-ass stuff, without a doubt. no use even watching with volume on, or eyes open.
