. ''The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war,no matter how justified,shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation'' --George Washington--

TV Land
I wrote TV land to describe in my cynical way the influence of the Television on our daily lives.
The telly says put your hand in the fire
The telly says Vote Labour
The telly says crime is under control
The telly says check on your neighbour
The telly says Coronation Streets on
The telly says Emerdale farm
The telly says there’s enough food and water to go round
The telly says there’s their appealing for calm
The telly says the Government need more tax
The telly says work till you drop
The telly says fuel rationing soon
The telly says homophobia must stop
The telly says put a gun in your mouth
The telly says dig a hole first
The telly says leave your money to us
The telly says death cant be worse.
