Get a load of Oprah



That's right! Oprah is getting her own cable television channel. Next year she'll take over the Discovery Health Channel which will be called OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network.)

So...what kinds of programs will she do? She says it will be mindful, not mindless TV. (What's wrong with mindless TV???) One of my best friends, Chris, wants to see a Dress for Success type show - fashion for every woman and her lifestyle.

I asked Scott (aka Scott McKenzie) if he could pick a show what would it be but his self editor kicked in and he wouldn't say (he just laughed - take that however you like.)

Good kids aren't very well represented in the media today so I hope she produces a show about them doing the good things they do - like staying in school and avoiding the plague (aka drugs.)

Of course the show we all want to see is Oprah's Favorite Things Orlando! (Fooled you with that whole 'good kids doing good things' bit, didn't I? ;-)
