Let's see ... at 8PM Central there's "Little House on the Prairie," never been a big fan of that, but ... or, I have Clarissa, aka Mrs. Dalloway, who was charming in The Voyage Out ... ah, also at 8PM there's "Steven Madden Footwear" on the Home Shopping Network ... on the other hand I still have, egads, roughly a thousand years of Gibbon to go ... mmm, "Crime Inc." on CNBC, but that's too terribly similar to tonight's MSNBC theme ... more D.F. Wallace is definitely out, otherwise I'd be joining Kate Gompert in the fetal position ... ah here we are, The Weather Channel, a saner, more thoughtful and far less predictable television alternative to that perfectly coiffed hoax in a Costco shirt.
