			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been putting this site together for a while now and I’ve come to a realization:</p>
<p>This is going to take forever.</p>
<p>Between work, my son, my dog, trying to sell a house and <em>Simpsons</em> reruns, I just don’t have the time to devote to this! To make matters worse, Fox airs reruns of <em>The Office</em> at 7:30pm and 11pm. When am I ever going to find time to do this? (Just kidding…sorta.)</p>
<p>Anyway, the other day I was at a photo shoot and overheard a guy talking about putting together his portfolio and how easy it was to get online. The whole conversation really got on my nerves for two reasons.</p>
<p>1.    The person in question was a young, single, guy with no kids and no real responsibilities other than to try and not look hung over at work and to maintain his <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_MZd3_a0qUBg/R0qOgMV8uII/AAAAAAAABMo/R2aKR6Iatuc/s400/douchebag.jpg">perpetual 5 o’clock shadow</a>.<br />
2.    I heard him say, “I don’t own a TV.”</p>
<p>Is it just me, or are people who say they don’t own a television or watch TV really creepy? When they say things, “I have more important things to do with my time than watch TV” do they assume I think he/she is a smart, worldly sage who should be revered for his/her wisdom and insight?</p>
<p>F&amp;@k no!!! The first thing that pops into my mind when I meet one of these people is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3I7IdcJDacg">Buffalo Bill from <em>The Silence of the Lambs</em></a>.</p>
<p><div id="attachment_303" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 210px"><a href="http://danpbarry.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/tedlevine_l.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-303" title="Buffalo Bill at his creepiest." src="http://danpbarry.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/tedlevine_l-200x150.jpg" alt="Buffalo Bill at his creepiest." width="200" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Buffalo Bill at his creepiest.</p></div></p>
<p>Perhaps this guy’s TV was broken. Perhaps he just moved and needs to buy a new one. The fact remains, he said “I don’t a TV”. Now I can’t help but think he <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQb2m6VJ-eo">has a congresswoman’s daughter holed up in his basement</a> and is making a lamp shade out of his girlfriend.</p>
<p>Wow. I guess I kinda’ got off track. I needed to vent about that though. It’s been brewing inside me for a couple of days.</p>
<p>Anywho, I still have some more work to post and some other work to replace. I&#8217;m still trying to figure out how to get flash files to play in my posts. If anyone knows how to accomplish this task gimme&#8217; a shout. Stay tuned!</p>

The woman has had everyone from the president of the United States to bisexual midget strippers on her program. So don&#8217;t you think she should have learned a thing or two about studying her guests before they sit on her couch? Even casual football fans know about Super Bowl MVP Drew Brees&#8217; birthmark on his right cheek. Check out O as she tries to brush it off. (Ugh. Next time look at the 8.5&#215;11 glossy of your guest, O!)</p>
