I do not study real history and do play videogames, but still agree with you.

I think you sometimes are crazy... what should I do now? Pick just a couple of chapters or a bunch of losen pages?

I read your rant and immediately thought American politics and that is as close as I can reply without (hopefully) incurring the content police.

I stopped when I move abroad because I had no money to buy one. Once I got the money, I continued without until some years ago (maybe 10?) that I ended buying one with my wife, but never connected the anthena, just the laptop to see films or documentals without commercials. The time that other people see in a day, is what we see in between a week and a month, depending on the mood.

We watch a couple of hours of Netflix in the evening.
But we're so far out that without an antennae we can't receive anything local. I've had a 40 ft. antennae laying on the ground for a year but with all the other remodel haven't had a chance to put it up...and not sure I want too.

Everytime I am somewhere where there is a TV it confirms my "no, hell no". What a crap programs and what a bunch of commercials that inflate the length of a film twice or more.
For Information I hear radio while commuting or read the online papers.

We don't listen to radio either, but once in a blue moon.
So if a war started we wouldn't even know it.

The commercial obviously worked: you're still thinking about it, and you've just subjected the rest of us to it and linked to the website!

There's a comedian on Netflix named Burt Kreischer<sp?> ("the machine").
He said sometimes he spits on the toilet paper first. Yup. Calls it an Alabama wet wipe.

that's just nasty. You don't want to use them if you are on septic. There is no flushable wipe safe for the tank.

Not that I would use them anyway but we are on septic, so we're cautious what goes down.

I had to go pick up some groceries on Saturday and the radio was broadcasting coverage of a NASCAR race and the name of it was the Dude Wipes 300 (number may have been different). I couldn’t believe it. Reminded me of this bit Larry The Cable Guy did a while back. Warning: NSFW: NASCAR - YouTube[^]

Ours predates the days of reversing cameras but does have a reversing proximity detector that beeps. There were times in Canada when it needed a defroster to get rid of snow or ice!
