Fruit and a ballet

I went to the grocery store and came home to watch a ballet with a bowl
of watermelon. I had no idea what is was about, but enjoyed watching the
delicate movements. Later, I realized it was Swan Lake.

It is a shame Congress desires to destroy Public TV by withdrawing funds
because it doesn't carry ultra-conservative values and don't support the
war on terror, or something like that. I would like to know where else
one can find New York ballets, Des Moines Metro operas, Boston Pops
symphonies with 4th of July fireworks, and children's programs that are
sex-free, cuss-free, and adult themed-free. Public TV is the only
commercial-free viewing available in the country. I guess congress has
decided the public is no longer entitled to have programs determined by
the public instead of profit-driven companies.

That's OK, I'm getting use to rights, comforts, privaledges, and
anything taken for granted removed from my life. I only ask what will be
taken away next, my right to breathe fresh air outside from relaxing
environmental regulations? Post later. Bye!
