                          time brought about a state of affairs where there are

                          reality TV shows than there are Americans watching reality 
                          TV. "If all the people on these shows would even 
                          watch them when they are broadcast, this would not be 
                          happening," said TV expert Langord Goldstein, "but 
                          most of the participants I've talked to who were on 
                          shows like Transvestite Island or Baby Momma

 For the 11,637th day in a 
                          row, The Rev. Brendan Powell Smith managed to defy death, 
                          successfully staying alive in the face of life's innumerable 
                          potential pitfalls, pratfalls, and deadly afflictions. 
                          In the last twenty-four hours alone, Smith deftly avoided 
                          being struck by any of the 428 automobiles that crossed 
                          his path, kept clear of any and all falling anvils and 
                          open manhole covers, and did not succumb to any fatal 
                          physical ailments. Experts marveled that Smith "even 
                          considered this worth mentioning."
