“… it almost made me wish I could accept the Christian God instead of my tiny 17 gods of protection because one big God would have helped me through a lot of muck and terror and pain and horror; and it would have been easier and maybe even more sensible, it would have helped me understand some of the whores I had lived with and some of the women, the dull jobs, the no jobs, the nights of madness and starvation, and I suppose that every person who stepped in into that cathedral had some thoughts and some of their thoughts might have led to conversion, but me, I thought, if I converted, if I believed, then I’d have to leave the devil down there all alone in his flames and that wouldn’t be nice of me because in sporting events I almost always tended to root for the underdog and in spiritual events I was stricken with the same malady because I was not a thinking man, I went by what I felt and my feelings went to the crippled, the tortured, the damned and the lost, not out of sympathy but out of brotherhood because I was one of them, lost, confused, indecent, petty, fearful and cowardly; unjust, and kind only in small flashes and even though I was fucked-over, knowing it didn’t help, it didn’t cure it, only solidified it†Charles Bukowski Shakespeare never did this

I used to watch the news until I realized I really only cared about the surf/weather report - which is must better articulated on the NOAAA website.
So, if I must watch tv I'll turn on the news. But there are probably better things to do
