True to form, I fell asleep reading while waiting for the new year, but woke up in time to see the ball touch down in New York City to celebrate the New Year in the Eastern Time Zone.
Flipping around the TV channels for a central time zone celebration, I see "It's a Moon Pie New Year." Really! I looked for other options and there appeared to be nothing other than rerun specials. Come on, can't we do better than that? That is disgusting. But you know what, it is indicative of why the rest of the country has such a disgusting image of the South. This is embarrassing, a hickville portrayal of the Mid American South. Stand up and be counted, because this does not project a positive image. Well, the truth be known, this does project a fairly accurate image of the Mid American South. Sorry.
