On Tuesday (sometime around then, anyway) my dad brought home an HDTV. It's huge. Well, huge by my standards. It also has to be propped up with some books to make it more stable since the stand doesn't fit on our entertainment center completely. But that's not the point.

We don't have cable but local stations broadcast on multiple frequencies with HDTV. So now we have 6 and 6-2, 10 and 10-2, etc. There are like twenty million frequencies for channel 48, which is the Jesus channel. I now have maybe six Jesus-centric channels. It's quite amusing. Maybe I can catch Kirk Cameron being adorable and talking about God someday. He's got very soulful eyes. They distract me momentarily so I watch his show for a little longer...then he opens his mouth and I realize he's being preachy so I keep flipping.

So just now I was watching our new TV (still am) on the music video channel called "The Tube". Right now it's playing 'Linger' by The Cranberries. Very artsy music video. But I want to talk about another video. A video that has ruined my view of the band. It's not because it's a bad video per se. I mean, it's not very good. It reminds me of the split screen assignment we had to do for 4D. Oh, side note- the lead signer for INXS is very pretty. I thought he was a chick. Oooo, London! Back to the main topic now. The movie itself is kind of dull and the multiple screens don't do much for it. But that's not why I'm writing this.

I'm not a huge Gin Blossoms fan. In fact, I only enjoy listening to like two of their songs and very rarely. But 'Hey Jealousy' came on and I was excited to finally see what their music video looked like. Then came the disappointment. Then came the realization that the lead singer is not attractive. This generalization that all men with good or pleasant voices are attractive is not true, obviously, but I was just hoping. Maybe it was his haircut that I didn't like. It was like a mullet minus the "business in the front". Yeah...not a good look. Not even in the early 90s. Now whenever I hear that song I'll see the bad video and hair. At least, I will for a while. Then I'll get over it. I mostly have by now, anyway. Wanna know why? Because Prince is freakin' awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Prince, I love you. I love that you have an adorable little kid in your music video. I love your kickassness. I love the tap dancers. You are just awesome!

Man, I love this channel. It's not like the crappy MTVu they show in our cafeteria at school. Unlike there, everytime I turn around Jared Leto is not behind me (which is creepy Caitlin, no matter how much you love him). Good times.

Speaking of school...maybe I should actually do my homework today. Blargle. I dun wanna.
