TV Censorship and lack of it

     I meant to write this on my birthday, Feb. 14th. I was so happy to get a Happy Birthday greeting from "That Girl"  yep, that's right, Anne Marie, AKA Marlo Thomas.  I started watching her the first time that show aired because I loved her father.  It was love at first sight.  Now I watch the show on ME TV  do y'all get that station?  It's my favorite.  I love those old shows that gave us enough credit that they knew we could figure out what they were doing when they closed the bedroom door.  I mean, Ricky and Lucy, and Mary and Rob had twin beds and yet the Ricardo's had Little Ricky and the Petrie's had Richie,  and they didn't have to show us how they got them.

     Well, while I'm on the subject of the censors, what's up with the language?  Even on family shows they use words I would have and did get my mouth washed out for using.  I learned very quickly what words were not appropriate to use.  How can a kid be expected not to use vulger language when he hears it on his favorite programs?  And you can't say that it's what the people want, because Mr. Bill Cosby didn't allow such potty mouth words on his show and his was the most watched, longest running, all time favorite and favorite rerun show ever! Yay, Mr. Bill<3

Thank you, and goodnight:)

OMG, I have been tweeted by: Mackenzie Astin and his mom, Patty Duke, Ruth Buzzi, Rosie O'donnell, Robin Roberts, and even that Hot Golden girl, Betty White, but yesterday my daughter and granddaughter's mouths dropped open when they saw who had tweeted me early that morning.  Who's hotter than Betty White?  Apparently, their favorite author, Piers Anthony is!  Now my girls think I'm a celebrity:)
