Let Me Take You to the Beach

This is actually a song title of Frank Zappa’s — I can’t remember the lyrics right now, and I’m too lazy to go dig it up out of my archives … but I will say that I recall them as rather empty.

My mind is also sort of empty right now. The mainstream propaganda machinery is churning out such immense amounts of hogwash that there almost seems to be no alternative to tuning out (or whatever that Tim Leery phrase is).

Mainstream has an odd way of sounding significant. In reality it is about as significant as a hot air balloon, which seems like a rather timely metaphor as the whole world seems to running out of gas (or whatever).

I bet you, my dear reader, are becoming a little sick and tired of seeming this and seeming that, and you’re seemingly itching for some good old fashioned hard data. OK, here ya go …

Mainstream Media, Brought to you by Google

This graphic might almost lead you to believe that “Black Out with My Rack Out” (see also “Black Out with My Rack Out” 😉 ) was being talked about [1] quite a lot before “Spring Break” … and it wasn’t until much later that the phrase made headlines in the mainstream news media — isn’t that odd?

That’s it for this week — Happy Holidays! 😀

[1] or at least “searched for” (albeit predominantly by people with rather limited literacy skills 😉 )
