  Last night I watched,  what had to be the worst reality dating show ever.  No,  I am not talking about The Fifth Wheel,  but,  The One Who Got Away.
 The show was based upon on a man plucking his mate out of a group of women he had either dated or had a crush on in the past.  What boggles me the most is the fact that this Southern cheeseball actually had so many women in his past and most importantly,  the fact that all these women were willing to come on the show,  knowing they some of them had indirectly kissed one another.  The only redeeming factor of this show was that the lucky winner was an Asian American woman.  It was just refreshing to see.
 I actually felt as if I were in some way victorious.  I threw my arms up in the air and looked around my empty apartment to see if there was anyone I could spread the news to.  I quickly got over the painstaking finale and watch a documentary on the Hole in The Wall Gang,  one of whose directors is Paul Newman.  The camp is for children with cancer and other life threatening diseases to come and have a wonderful summer filled with new friendships,  fun and time to be just kids.
 I wish my finances were stable enough so that I could simply volunteer for the rest of my life.  If I won the lottery,  I would donate money to:  ( Keeping just enough to buy a printmaking press and supplies to build a log cabin)  Cystic Fibrosis Foundation http:
