I had to make a decision when I moved from Buffalo Grove to my new digs in Round Lake Beach. What to do about TV? BG had a big 27" Panasonic and a Comcast cable connection built in and I had been taking full advantage, keeping the tube on a lot.
Moving, I would have no TV and if I wanted cable or anything else, I would have to buy it. I got enough nudges to forgo the TV, so I took the plunge and have been living TV less now since I moved in, a week ago today. As I expected I am getting a lot more done and I am also missing Charlie Rose, Tavis, Oprah, the View, etc. etc. but on balance it was definitely the right move.
There is a TV in the common room downstairs and I have gone down for a fix occasionally but it has no remote and some of the channels don't have audio, so its a pain in the you-know-what. Today I went down to watch Jeopardy at 3:30 and walked in on the Bingo game. I asked them if the TV would bother them, and I got a chorus of Yeses so its a new reality folks, and I'm lovin' it.
