Hey, How COOL is it to be watching CURRENT on cable?

or, for that matter, on the internet, so that means all of you can. Let me count the way...

1) Tonight, after Keith Olbermann, I watch for a second time, "An Inconvenient Truth". This brought back the very appropriate attitude adjustment I was ready to jump into, which is exactly what I needed to see AGAIN.
2) There is a wonderful program that employs true newsworthy material called, "Vanguard". Have you seen these reporters? It's not just the subject matter (smoking world wide, drug wars, poverty), it's the style of grit journalism and the gut and brains involved. This is the kind of reality TV our brains have been in need of.
3) This week, they introduced another 5 part series, "50 documentaries you need to see before you die" or some such title. I was hugely impressed with the subject matter with another journalist/interviewer/host with personality and brains. So much good material.

Then, there looks to be another one coming down the pike... Curiosity, or some such title. This one asks the questions, for sure. I think the first episode we're supposed to see would explore, "Did God start the Universe?"

You know, after understanding in my 50's what I didn't consider as much in my 40's, and brashly acted upon in my 30's after I cleared my head from my 20's, I think I understand Al Gore a hell of a lot more, and I admire what he decided to do after the fucking White House was stolen.

I think Current is the best thing next to Al Gore these days, and that's all, folks!
