COMPUTERS!

There’s a lot of very good food-for-thought in this Nightline segment from back in the day. 

It’s fascinating to look back and think about where technology had come from and where it is today (and of course where it will lead going forward).

Technology is a necessary part of life now, and society’s infrastructure is becoming more and more dependent on having technology on a daily basis. Finding the balance of having such technology in life can be totally sustainable with conscious effort. I think technology, like everything, is best in moderation.

That sweet moment in “Roseanne” when everyone gathered around in the backyard and sang songs.

So, I don’t really know what people think or have to say about this show, but I still believe it’s an untouchable masterpiece. That whole mess about Roseanne’s comments on Twitter got blown SO out of proportion and it is astonishing to witness how quickly people forget the true character of Roseanne Barr beyond her words. I still think it’s especially mind-boggling how a female entertainer is held to a higher social responsibility than some of the people who actually run the country (which is a reality that tends to reveal our overall areas of opportunity as a society). Politicians have more of a social responsibility and yet it seems like today we have a free-for-all in regards to political sophistication (and just overall cognizance of the time) - which may or may not have a detrimental influence over society as we may come to understand.

According to the “interwebs” hahahaha... Tim Allen had briefly touched upon Roseanne’s comments stating “That’s not the Rosie I know..” and he actually spoke to her defense as someone who he has always known to be respectful & appreciative of all walks of life.

Personally, I believe no one can take away all of the years of genuinely good work that went into the show “Roseanne” and the values & good messages found in the stories. I don’t see any reason to watch “The Conners” because having “Roseanne” without ROSEANNE is just plain STUPID & POINTLESS. If you remove the heart, mind, and soul of a body you have no life - and that’s what “The Conners” has - No Life. It just makes the legacy of Roseanne’s perfect 10 seasons that much sweeter to me as someone who will always be loyal to that show (as it has a profound purpose amidst the history of American TV shows).
