        I watch the crasher shows every day between reruns and new ones. I love watching your shows, but did you know that Gallup 201 poll says 36% of americans are overweight and over 25% are obese? Why is it all your crasher shows have beautiful or pretty thin women picked? Also, did you know that in 2012 we will have 100 million americans over 50? Why don't I see any on these shows? Also, did you know that according to Harris polls 2011, only 20% 1 in 5 of americans drink liquor? However every other show at least of House Crashers is putting up a huge bar with kegerators and wine bars. I'd like to see some more regular americans enjoy these makovers!

        there's a difference between TV and life.

        on TV, you want perky people who you aspire to know or to be, leaders, hot.

        in life, you want another beer and somebody to shoot that wacko running the lawn mower wnile you're trying to nap.

        it's a proven fact that other than the redneck channel, nobody watches the latter. and that only to tell the wife and friends, "see? SEE? hail, that's how ya get 'er dun! get OFF my case!"


        sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money?
