I saw yesterday where the Discovery Channel had a program called "The ACLU Files". DC has let me down.

who spends approximately 30 hours a week on non-essential computer use.
Pikers!That's what I say. I can kill 30 hours in an afternoon when I'm using about fifteen windows at a time.

Said with a French accent:
"...I am sad for you..."
Why French? I don't know...it seemed appropriately silly. Fortunately, I had no expectation to have crushed by reality...

Who determines what is non-essential computer use?The ones who will start the political drive to tax it.
By the hour, of course.
They led the way with tobacco, and this will most likely be next.

Someone told me you can run keyboards thru the dish machine. Just have to let them air out for a couple of days afterwards.
May try it once when I get a spare board. Can't afford to be down for a couple of days.

Ditto.
Just got rid of TV/cable entirely. Video entertainment now is either DVDs (suddenly I have time to actually watch the "special features") or Internet (mostly chat boards and streaming video).
Newspapers suck. Poorly written, mostly uninteresting, and outdated the moment the ink dried. Between Google News and Drudge pulling up the best stuff from all sources, do I really need newspapers? maybe as firestarter or birdcage flooring.
Will admit there is a certain draw for the mindles pap of channel surfing. Not worth the $$$ though.
To: TomGuy
It's totally educational - I love being able to look stuff up whenever I want. The net is a great thing for a hungry mind... plus the excellent friends I met online when we never would have crossed paths.

But watching 30 hours of "non essential" TV in a week and one is simply a NORMAL AMURIKAN.

To: PennsylvaniaMom
Well, if it stinks too bad, we'll just stop it and throw in an oldie like "The Fugitive" or a good western.
