TV challenged

Last week our TV broke. Now to follow the playoffs BP has to pay active attention to gamecasts rather than having one idle ear on the TV broadcast. Now instead of surfing to find a cheesy movie to watch for 20 minutes, I have to read during dinner. (There's a very interesting article in the current Z, by the way, about the ways in which activist celebrities have abetted G8 failure to relieve African debt.)

To me it's surprising how little I actually miss the TV. And it's mildly interesting that we're going to replace the thing, anyhow.

And last night I heard the wind up of Presidential Election 2008. All I could think was, "Please shut up!" And lo and behold, I reached over and turned the t.v. off. Powerful.
