It creates time. I spend the time visiting friends, reading, and sometimes watching movies on the VCR. I have been here three years now, and last week, a young man Benjamin, from Tohono O'dham tribe hooked up my VCR and DVD player so now I can watch movies. To me it is natural to live without TV. I have no strong desires to watch tv and when I am at a friends, and the tv goes on I go to the other room. You are a reader and a writer, and you will probably discover your life will improve.

I wouldn't mind giving up a little TV clutter myself, but I wouldn't want to go to extremes.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807012460779756615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2680602048847357735.post-78210032008877266592010-04-30T20:05:20.255-07:002010-04-30T20:05:20.255-07:00That does it.

Dare ya to stick it out for an hour. In taht time you'll agree with at least one idea or get a mild chuckle. I identify with 'the old curmudgeon'<br />commentator. It's a Hee Haw/Laugh-In sort of broadcast. They also give away prizes for daily contests if you're the lucky caller. It is an option to the dreaded commercials on TV. And , when I am not with John Boy and Billy it is NPR for me, too. Maybe the two are much alike?satire satyrnoreply@blogger.com
