For Love of the Cartoons....

Every since I was a tiny lad, I've always loved cartoons. I remember getting up early on Saturday morning and watching them with my big sister. Those were the days, when every Saturday involved personally catered breakfast from my mom, watching animations on television and not getting up out of the bed to come to work. To work on a Saturday morning is absurd and inhumane. Anyway, enough of the digression. I love watching TV. programs like Justice League: Unlimited, Spongebob Square Pants, Teen Titans, and Dragonball GT. Even though these animations are suppose to appeal to the child, it has some adult appeals. Think about it. Why shouldn't it? I mean, adults make these cartoons, so it would be logical to understand that they do contain some adult themes. I hate when people look at me in bewilderment when I admit my fixation with certain cartoons. My motto: Cartoons are for everyone or at least can be. Well, except for Blue's Clues. I hate Blue's Clues. I know that hate is very strong word, but I can't hold back. What's with the guy? What are his real intentions with that odd-color little puppy?


Today, I come in to work today, and this lady comes in asking for a use of the scanner. I tell her that the scanner is not available to the public. So she tells me to make an enlarged copy of the book title, Their Eyes Were Watching God. Her intentions? It seems as if she is actually doing a book report for her child. For a matter of fact, as I'm typing this blog, she is typing the report about that very book. What is going on with parents and education these days? Why can't her son/daughter just read the wimpy 150-page book? Then after reading it, write a very simple report about it. It's not like the teachers are making you postulate the calculus of the Moon's orbital movement or write a 100-page thesis on implications of symbols in The Awakening. My mother would never do such a thing even if it meant me failing a grade or being held back. I was taught to have a strong work ethic especially when it came to school and academics. It makes no sense that a parent has to be complete their child's assignment for them. I don't blame the child; I blame the parent for not laying out the universal values of responsibility and hard work. They should be feathered and tarred. What's next? Do his/her resume and make the interview appointment. I don’t think so. Talk about the ruinations of today's children.

I have decided to change my current job title from Library Assistant to Public Services Assistant. It sounds cooler and more impressive.

Time Events:

Only an hour and 48 minutes to go until work is over.

Only two more days until the work week begins again.

Only 19 days, 456 hours, 27360 minutes, and 1641600 seconds until I get to see Ashley.

I must discuss the implications of my blog title: “The Daily Bugle”. For one thing, it’s the only thing I could come up with, but it doesn’t mean that I will be posting on a daily basis. Far from it. Another thing is that I risk being sued by Marvel Comics for adopting a name of a newspaper in their flagship comic book Spiderman. Let’s hope that doesn’t happened.


I’m going to go find that Nutty Buddy in the staff office and attempt to get some work done today.

At least I can look forward to some all-new episodes of my favorite shows(listed above) tonight.
