Press my What?

I just wasted 2 full hours watching a show about a "scandal" in the game Press Your Luck. Basically the 2-hour scandal is that a guy figured out the "random" pattern in the big game board, and played it like a video game, winning a shitload of money. Network guys were pissed, and tried to not give him the money saying he "cheated" when clearly, he had not. He was just somewhat clever.

The whole program (on the Gameshow network, plastered with commercials for the new PYL) turned out to be this propaganda thing about how this guy (who is now dead, BTW) is creepy and sinister and evil because he beat the network jobbies at thier own game. It was insulting to my intelligence to watch; but it was fun to scream at. Plus I had a bunch of guests who were totally into it.

Back to the doc tomorrow, to try some more pills and see if I can't do a better job faking sane. Gotta go back to work soon.
Oh, and a big "shout out" to Ryan for taking me to get my cheque!!
