A few nights ago I was watching one of the higher numbered channels (4 or 5 are the highest I get) and there was a half hour documentary in which Michael Winner and Piers Morgan lambasted the fact that people with no talent became celebrities. They didn't seem to realise at any point.
At first I was enraged by the sheer wrongness and wanted to tear holes in the fabric of the universe and escape to somewhere which made more sense. Then I fell asleep.
A friend of mine had a number of Stryper and Petra albums. His dad was a minister and paid for him to buy anything from the authorised christian music mail order catalogue. We both got into this guy Steve Taylor who sang really odd songs like "I blew up the clinic real good" (about an ice-cream salesman who blew up an abortion clinic) and "This disco (used to be a cute cathedral)" which seemed to be about overly trendy churches.
