I think creative writing is dead.<\/p>\n

A broad generalized thought, but in the last couple days, I’ve noticed that people aren’t trying as hard anymore to be thoughtful in putting names to things.<\/p>\n

New show called Combat Hospital<\/em> which weirdly enough is all about driving around the country in a trailer that is shaped like a toaster and the eclectic looking host cooks weird things. NO! It’s a fucking drama about a combat hospital. ZZZ. Does anyone remember the first time you heard the name M*A*S*H*?<\/p>\n
