Cats / TV Goodbye Analog: Part II

Posted by Patrick Alan Coleman on Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 3:08 PM

I came home to find two stations still churning out the old signal. One had a creepy end of the world, ghost channel feel, explaining what had happened to the signal, the other was All My Children, which also has a creepy end of the world feel.

I guess I'll be watching a lot more videos of cats descending stairs like Slinkys. Especially when I'm drunk, because when I'm drunk I also go down stairs like a Slinky. The television could never provide me with this kind of surreal connectivity.*

*unless I was watching America's Funniest Home Videos or something.

You're drunk right now, aren't you? And where were you last night?

At least the youtube videos don't have Bob Saget anthropomorphizing the animals with a creepy high voiceover.
