T.V. is off EXCEPT for Glenn Beck on Fox tonight at 5pm. He is having Sarah Palin which is a must see in my book.

Watching the football game last night with CBS promoting their shows with Obama-like posters and yelling “Yes We Can” was it for me. There is no safe channel.

MST3000! Ah yes. More believable than a Hussein administration with less than half the danger to your freedom.

Oh, I don’t know, watching O take the oath in a snowstorm might be kind of entertaining. Especially if, as he raises his right hand, there is a giant ZOT, in the form of an unsual, but not unheard of in a snowstorm, bolt of lighting.

Am watching Curb Appeal on HGTV. Gives us ideas for our landscaping plan.

DVD movie fest all day for us tomorrow, and the "House" marathon!

It's so nice for HBO to "allow" everyone access for their coverage...

We've never subscribed before, now such a timely reminder as to why!

I am only watching these wonderful re-runs of Magnum P.I. (9:00am EST).

I haven’t watched the news since Nov P.M.....whatever.

But then...The good news was McNut lost. The bad news was Obama may have won.

I will be watching 24, also. I have found that you can see lots of programs free on the internet. One site I like is Fox on Demand. It has full episodes of 24, House, Sarah Conner Chronicles, etc.

HGTV

HGTV is a good option. I've had it on all day. They are running a House Hunters International marathon. Suddenly, the Caribbean is very tempting.......

“After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting."

Reminds me of a Jewish saying: Be careful what you ask for. You might get it.

(I'll be at work tomorrow, but I want to avoid all media.)

I only see Obie long enough to grab my remote and change the channel. I hate the thought of tuning out for four years, but boycotting all news programming has been a breeze so far (I started on Nov 4). Freepers post the news I need to know. It’s been good enough so far. :-)
