I haven't watched TV since late June.
Seriously! When I moved at the end of June, I left my TV set in its box, which I put in the basement. It's still down there.

The closest I've come to watching TV this summer was catching all four nights of the DNC on C-SPAN's website. And except for "The Daily Show," I haven't missed vacantly staring at that 24-inch screen one bit--particularly when I hear y'all justifiably complaining about the media's pro-Bush slant in the lead-up to the election. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that "killing my television" was one of the best things I've ever done for myself!

1. Nice, isn't it?
We don't watch ours, except for the occasional movie. Miss the Daily Show, though, for sure :( But on a trip last month, staying with friends who do have a TV, and it's on all the time, I realized how much time it sucks up... glad to not have that! Now if they would just put the whole Daily Show online, we'd be set!

2. Although I have a nice 27" tv
it's sat there unwatched for months. I happened to have it on tonite to watch the new CSI Miami episode.

Better things to do with the day!
