One Shot Wednesday.....

.

.
GaGa....Sheen...Bieber.
From the Japanese standpoint
Who gives a Rat's Ass?

.

.
I'm sure this theme will run rampant today.
Do you have any poetry or prose to post?
In any format?
If you do, and it's Wednesday?
Go....Here!

    This American is ready to gag over those 3 also. :)

    Although the cartoon was a nice touch. ;)

    Your always subtle way with words nails the truth--and not only from Japan's point of view. I keep hearing the talking heads on the tube saying "Now, none of this radiation will reach the US" and I want to say SO??!!! Pull your head out, people are dying here.

    Unfortunately a goodly portion of the American public will be watching Entertainment Tonight and reading their copy of the National Inquirer rather than giving a Rat's A$$ about the real world.

    Ha! This made me laugh! But that's really what crosses one's mind when one hears about things like the disaster in Japan, and then the program changes to something silly like "winning". Nice and strait to the point.

    You make an excellent point. There are SO many more important things than that silliness.:)

    I second that perspective. The haiku fits the picture well. The overall picture I'm afraid many people still do not get. Well said, G

    Spot on. From a Michigan standpoint of the Governor making himself supreme leader who gives a rats ass about those 3.

    I hope they can get their heads out of their ass long enough to focus on Japan.

    Sadly, the lesson on what's really important in life will evade the fan-boys and -girls. Nice one, Galen.
