Yea well that's just the trouble... I'm bored by all of the things I'm
ignorant in. Makes me a lousy Trivia Pursuit player... can't ever
answer things from "History", "Entertainment", "Geography", "Sports",
and can only sometimes answer things from "Arts and literature"... I do
get quite a few of the "Science" questions, though. Never the less, I
can't play the game.
Not too often do you see programs on television about philosophy or
religion (ie analysis of, not "church" shows) And quite frankly I can't
get into soap operas. I like reading peoples journal online, but it's
not the same on television... to hyped up and unreal, I think.
