XBOX & New Age Gaming

I would love to purchase and XBOX 360, but there are so many horror stories online of them crashing and having problems that I'm scared to buy one! Whatever happened to the generation of systems that didn't have problems? In the age after NES, game systems rarely had problems, except for add-ons, such as Sega CD and Sega 32X.

I truly miss that generations of great gaming. Not only did the systems have little problems, but in that age, so many games that came out were landmark games. Today, video games cater to children in mindless, unproductive entertainment experiences. I speak of these games based on children's movies, such as Cars and A Bug's Life. I'm not a parent, but should I become one someday, I refuse to spend $400 for a video game system and $50 per game to entertain my child in a brain-melting, imagination-killing experience.

Television

Television these days is hear worthless. The programs on TV are undoubtedly the worst in the history of television. Sex, violence, "reality" television, crudeness, and immorality run rampant into our living rooms while being labeled as entertainment. Television programs are nothing short of embarrassing. Sometimes it seems the only thing television sets are good for these days are playing video games and renting some select movies.

Soy Milk

Soy milk is not milk. It is a liquid that is milked (verb) from soy beans. There is nothing "milk" about it. And it's horrible for cereal, and Ovaltine, and probably baking.
