Let’s pick on the TV folks for a few posts.

I have always enjoyed seeing the new HGTV Dream House each year. But this year seemed to be different than the past.  I watched about five minutes of this years show and found myself a little dizzy and still wondering what the house looked like.  It seemed that every time I saw a picture it was either zooming in or panning out and lasted for no more than a second or so.  I tried several times to watch but the result was always the same.

Thank goodness for the internet. I logged on to HGTV.com and found the 2011 house and this time I could casually browse through the two dozen or so pictures of the new home. Of course I signed up for a chance to win but I know that will not happen. As usual the house lived up to my expectations. It was a shame that the TV show didn’t. Maybe I can find a way to watch it in slow motion or something?

Here is a suggestion to the folks at HGTV. Next year hire a production company that does not have A.D.D. A slow lane intervention is definitely needed here. I know scores of very capable craftsmen spent many hours construction and furnishing the house. So, it was sad to see it all flash by so quickly without having a chance to savor any of their work.

The condition called “attention deficient disorder” gets a lot of play these days. It definitely should be attached to the crew that made this years TV episode. Get out the Ritalin.

But what do I know…
