"The television, that insidious beast, that Medusa which freezes a billion people to stone every night, staring fixedly, that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little."
-Ray Bradbury

That newspaper, magazine, and tabloid cereal box... that VCR, cable, and reality pay-per-view...that radio, CB scanner, and call (yourself) in talk-show...Β Β that internet, chatroom, and online (imaginary) friend... that telephone, cell-phone, and smart-phony social network...
We are Medusa, insidious beasts that we are, freezing our billions of selves to stone every generation, staring fixedly at what we are not, aspiring to be so much, and after all, being so little...in the eyes of Medusa.

Poor Lauren, your ghetto blaster is out no more music
Great Lauren, whenever you are, you enlighten the shot ^^
And yeah worst than the plagues of Egypt, the plagues of technology whose TV is a good agent.

Nice photo.
Ray is right. Whenever people watch TV for a long time, they are addicted to TV, which cause them to not move, just like how Medusa turned people into stone by using her eye(s).
And you look very nice too. ^_^
