More TV talk
Posted by jen October 4th, 2006 in Jen Likes TV.There was NOTHING on last night and Tivo was picked bare. It looks like we’re going to have to hoarde programs on the Tivo for Tuesdays now. NOTHING ON!
I saw some clips of 30 Rock on NBC’s YouTube feed, THAT NBC show about late night sketch shows might be worth watching. Did I mention I HATE Studio 60? HATE.
Lost is on tonight, and Battlestar is tommorrow Friday! I can’t wait!!!! I’ve been dying over here.
This morning I got to witness a NBC reporter chase a older Amish man into a circle (so they could get his face) asking him how he feels, and if he forgives the murderer of thier children with that loud insistant nasal voice. I want to drive to Pennsylvania right now and just beat the all the reporters with sticks (they are period to the 1800’s.) I’m writing them next to shame them, the bastids.
Former CONgressman Mark Foley has released that not only was he an alocoholic (doubted even by other repubs), molested by a clergymen when he was 14 (too old for pedos), gay (gay men don’t molest children, pedos do) but apparently according to Bill O’Reilly on FoxNews he’s now also suddenly a Democrat.
Here’s some future excuses I’m sure he’ll use next:
1: His puppy died when he was five and left a hole in his heart
2: He has butt cancer
3: His mother was a democrat who never loved him and dressed him funny
4: The Chrisptopher Lowell show came on while he was alseep and he woke up gay
5: He was a vicitim of fraternity hazing
6: His gym teacher in school smacked him on the butt that one time in class
7: He never got a date for his senior prom so he went stag
8: He was secretly undercover for that damned liberal media outlet DatelineNBC and got carried away
9: Clinton got a blowjob! Remember???
10: Abortion is a bigger sin than being hot for sinewy lucious teenage boys, the Pope said so!
(thanks to my bro for helping me write the list)

Two words: Veronica Mars.
A very satisfying LOST.
Hopefully a BSG feast on Friday…
Oh yes, if was VERY good. What did they do to kate???? Sawyer hot. Jack is gonna go get it on with Juliette I bet…
Um.. the Amish have no religious prohibitions against their faces being photographed, so your rant is a bit misplaced. Yes, I know this to be true, my Father grew up in an Old Order Amish family. In fact, I saw several voluntary statements by obvious Old Order spokesmen on the news. Maybe the incident you saw was pushy, and might even have crossed the line. But not the line you think.
I’ve been doing quite a bit of reading as of late and I’ve seen nothing that says they do allow it. In all my time living in Ohio not too far from the Amish here (but closer to the german bapists and mennonites areound here) and from everything else I’ve always herd that for the Old Skool Pennsylvania Amish it was verbotten. I’ve heard that certain orders are more lenient than others. One of the most useful sites is:
http://www.800padutch.com/amish.shtml
it says on one of it’s pages: ” The Amish are generally private people and often find all the attention and curiosity about their lifestyle disturbing. They believe that the taking of photographs where someone is recognizable is forbidden by the Biblical prohibition against making any ‘graven image’. Please respect their desire for privacy when visiting here.”
Well excuse me. What was I thinking? How could my personal knowledge and experience in my Amish family compare to something you read in a book?
