The Awful Truth

For the past few weeks, we have been watching episodes of Michael Moore's "The Awful Truth". We are exploring alternatives to traditioal media like Television and Print News and regular documentaries.
Here are some of our thougts about the show:
-Some episodes were better than others, but overall, it was pretty good.
-It made us think about some of these issues more, such as lack of good health insurance and jobs. This really comes down to the big issue: MONEY.
-We are suprised Michael Moore is not in jail. Luckily, we have freedom of speech!
-Dealing with these issues in a humorous way was entertaining, but still informative. It was an effective way to bring attention to some important topics.

The food was great.

My friends are great.

The eye was weird.

The bus was slow.

"Paper paper! more paper work! wooohoo! YEAH!!" - Random Lyrics




"Scorched by winter's wrath
I lay still in the night
This winter's choking embrace
Leaves me with no will to fight

Timeless winter

My heart decayed and deadened
By this ravenous winter
Forsee the end is frozen
Begins this timeless winter..." Into Eternity - Timeless Winter
