Yeesh. Hearing things like this makes me glad that I don't have to
deal with them anymore.

How? I just gave up television. ;)

And it's been really interesting--I've occasionally found myself going
through this routine where I sit wander into the living-room, sit down
on the couch, spend a minute trying to remember why I'm there..., and
then I remember that I have something else that I want to be
doing--and I go do it :)

My wife and I are thinking about doing webcasts of a homegrown sitcom
or something, using all of the now-free time that used to be allocated
to television.
