Scoop, Scoop.

Does anyone else find it amusing that we classify one of the deadliest jobs in the world, besides suicide bomber, as deep sea crab fishing?  Really?  The other one that made it high on the list is ice road trucking.  Ummm...I'm not saying they aren't extremely dangerous but, who cares?  I mean think about it.  They're "fishing" for crabs.  Crabs!  Do we really need crabs in our life so badly that we would send burly men out to sea for 3 months of the year to have only a handful return alive or in one piece for a meal that smells like you just sucked what was under your fingernail after scraping the bottom of a fish tank?  They're crabs people.  Get over it.  Pick up an education and be a plumber for god's sake.  At least you won't need to leave your wife at home to worry over the ever cooling plate of the shell fish dinner he risked everything for wondering if the father of her baby will be home with all his appropriate appendages.  Snap into a slim jim mutha bitches and get real.  Have I mentioned that they are just crabs?!  And on the other note of the ice road truckers...why aren't we using their deaths and mutilation as "fuel" for our litigational fires?  We should be lobbying to our government officials saying stop the murder, go green.  The only reason these men and women risk their lives to cross the semi frozen tundra is to take supplies up to the oil farms in Alaska and then ship oil back down to the willing.  Perfect reason to shut those bitches down and take on hydrogen or corn-powered machines.  Am I really the only one thinking about this?  I mean there have been shows on TLC or The History Channel, one of the two, broadcasting these dumb saps' lives.  The ratings go up and the crabs and oil come streaming in.  Is this what we as Americans have become?  Snookie drives the truck over the oil fields as The Desperate Housewives of Pensacola team up against all odds to get their unwed daughters dating again while shucking shell fish into bins?  Tell me you people wouldn't watch that show and then joke about it to try and justify the reason for watching it in the first place?  Makes me sad.  Although, I have to admit I do watch Chelsea Lately, so in a way I'm contributing to the mass hysteria known as our "culture", but I only watch her because I'm jealous of her face.  I like her face, people, is that a crime?!
