Moving is hard work
I don’t like packing up everything I own. I have a lot of stuff and most of it is heavy. I also use some of it every day and that stuff can never be put in a box.
Who wants to be a Superhero?
It’s a reality TV show hosted by Stan Lee. It’s pretty bad.
But, it had some surprising parts in it. Like many reality shows, there were several tests that the contestants had to take part in. Many of them were really pathetic. A few were secret tests where the real goal wasn’t to win a race, but maybe to help someone. Some of the tests were really about trying hard and not giving up. It revealed some real dedication and compassion I didn’t expect to see in a cheesy, low quality, television show.
Obviously this is television and everything was controled and the show is made up of only the footage we are allowed to see. Even if it’s not 100% directly staged, it’s all “fake”. But it did make me wonder what a real test of heroic traits would be like. A test sans the raw publicity and narcism.

Dirty Jobs
One television show I try not to miss is Dirty Jobs. It’s pretty simple in that the host basically visits people with “dirty” jobs and participates. Mike Rowe is this intrepid host and he really goes all out to get into the jobs, even if he knows abosultely nothing about the profession. This is what TV should be like. Intelligent, witty, and fun, all without taking itself seriously.
