Not Reality. Actuality.



I love this commercial! It's too funny, and yet so true. I yell at the television. If I am watching something, and I am really into the program, I don't even realize I do it. It's funny when Junior is sleeping, and I yell loud enough to wake him up. I usually cover by saying he must have been hearing things, and he'll just roll over and go back to sleep. The yelling is the truTV effect, and most time it can not be stopped.

I like watching Black Gold, which comes on truTV. It's about the oil drillers and the way they risk there lives to make the big bucks. My son loves Operation Repo. My mom, she can watch COPS twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, so that is her show of choice.

Of course, there are also the shows that feature stories like this truTV video. Let me say right now, I could not watch the whole thing. I have issues with seeing people get hurt. When this dudes hand came down on that knife, I was done. Things like that literally make me sick. Now, I can watch up until the gross stuff happens, and I am okay with the "after" part, but when it comes to the actual accident, I have to cover my face. This goes for everything from broken bones to blood. Junior makes fun of me all the time about it, because he loves this kind of thing. It must be because he is a guy.

If you don't have truTV in your cable or satellite package, look into getting it. There is something awesome about watching real things happen to real people. It's not reality. It's actuality.
