Oh that's ok... really, I'd watch too much tv if we did get cable or satellite... but it costs an arm and a leg, money we choose not to spend.

Pens, eh? We don't have "pens" in amerika... you say they leave a "line" on "paper?" Is this the same paper that gets used in "books?" Are you sure this isn't some unique form of "brittish entertainment?"
