Escape Pod Dreams, the "Throw away your TV" Issue

The New New blob

Television has its uses, and a home DVD system can be entertaining.

Any form of diversion, including reading and watching paint dry, can be overdone, though. I have occasionally found it useful to live in a house without a TV set for a year or so at a time. This is one of those times.

2. 9:57 AM
TV makes hard stuff look easy, and easy hard.

3. 10:57 AM
TVs and movies are loud

Your Other Right Foot (appearing nightly without warning)

4. 11:57 AM
Concentration and not the game show.
