I was pretty much frustrated beyond belief with work and wishing for a semi-entertaining way to ignore reality. I probably should have just gone to bed and spared you all the Miss Piggy huff. <BR/><BR/>But really, the idea of paying people what they are worth is interestsing. <BR/><BR/>It is my understanding that the average salary of a police officer is about $56,000. Nurses make roughlty $41,000 and teachers hover somewhere in the neighborhood of $47,000. We knew going into these professions, that we would never strike it rich but for whatever reason chose these paths regardless. <BR/><BR/>The latest article I read online said that the average salary of someone in the entertainment industry was $73,000. I have a hard time mustering up much sympathy for that.<BR/><BR/>Granted there are a LOT of other variables that go into the equation, but nevertheless, that is a sad commentary on our society if we are truly concerned with paying people what they are worth.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12857343777237248076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3835427392671145623.post-41676945001101741612008-01-30T12:38:00.000-08:002008-01-30T12:38:00.000-08:00AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steve and I LOVE(d) it and it was the highlight of the week...sad, I know. I really miss them all! <BR/>My friend was smart and has TiVo-ed the whole new season of ER, so she in effect was doing the whole, emergency preparedness thing and is ready now that the disaster has hit!<BR/>I do think you as teachers should get a kick back too! <BR/>Oh and with saying that...please don't laugh at my run on sentences or grammatical errors all over the place. I didn't have a great teacher like you!Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11393475014655752054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3835427392671145623.post-52329312595229384722008-01-30T10:05:00.000-08:002008-01-30T10:05:00.000-08:00I'm sorry, Sis, but I gotta tell you- good WRITERS...I'm sorry, Sis, but I gotta tell you- good WRITERS are the only thing that makes television stomachable. Actors are only as worthwhile as the material they're given, and if we don't acknowledge writers for the value they bring to entertainment we'll be stuck with more lameass "reality" and porn/profanity-filled drivel that comes with lazy writing.<BR/><BR/>Pay the writers what they're worth. Or I may have to give up on television altogether and start going out and doing stuff.f*bomb.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16995465654424549297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3835427392671145623.post-62647678795858244862008-01-30T09:15:00.000-08:002008-01-30T09:15:00.000-08:00another King classic. so glad i found your blog, i...another King classic. so glad i found your blog, i've really missed your sense of humor... always keeps me smilin! :)<BR/><BR/>and amen to pushing daisies!! i love that show!Kelsi {John, Jake, Georgia, Naomi, Alice}https://www.blogger.com/profile/06794351810183626282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3835427392671145623.post-83713757448356930532008-01-30T07:47:00.000-08:002008-01-30T07:47:00.000-08:00Glad to have you Jamie.
