Much agreed on the TV thing, Jeri. Have you heard of a show called SCARE TACTICS? Your mum would have been appalled. If I hadn't seen the ad for myself, I'd have never believed it. The premise is that 'friends' set up people to have the ever-living shit scared out of them. Not the typical "Boo!...Gotcha!... harharhar" stuff, the snippets they showed on the ad looked terrifying, with all of the prankees screaming, crying, or both. When did that become cool?
