Jerry, I stopped watching TV.....any and all.....two years ago. It's the
smartest thing I ever did. I now have time at night to do things that I used
to put off, I don't get so depressed at the shenanigans in the White House, I
don't have to put up with milllions of commercials interrupted by some
insulting and vulgar sitcom. My husband and I read books, we talk to each
other, we have time now for a lot of things..hobbies, chores, etc.
SHUT OFF THE TV COMPLETELY!!! Why waste the relatively short amount of time
one has on this earth watching a dumb BOX???
