The Price is Right

Today is the first day we get to see the new game show host of "The Price is Right". Drew Carey agreed to come out of his semi retirement and be the new show host. I will miss Bob Barker, but I'm so excited to see one of my favorite comedians take Bob's place. Here is a fun article that talks about the host change.

Ban dirty words from TV

There are 7 dirty words Rep. Doug Ose of Sacramento would like to get banned from TV. He's upset that such language is freely broadcasted on the airwaves. The FCC hasn't taken much action, so Ose plans to stir things up a bit.

I'm with him on this. When I was a kid, these words were never heard on TV. They were only whispered among small friends on the playground. Naturally, no one even knew what these words meant, just that they were bad words.
These days, kids may not even recognize the vulgarity of such language.

I applaud Ose for taking a stand. I'm ashamed that we allowed this TV language issue to accelerate to such a degree. Why didn't more Americans take a stand earlier?
