and one more for 2011...

This isn't so much a resolution rather than a realization of "why didn't I do this sooner?" I have a TV in my room that basically takes up space -- and it's not even flat screen; it's the old-school "fat" kind, so even worse! lol.

Last night out of nowhere I decided that the TV needs to go, for good. It rarely ever gets turned on; sometimes during a trainer session, but I can just use Hulu for that. Generally, I think most of what's on TV is crap anyways.

Bottom line: I have time to be watching TV in my room, then I should either be a) sleeping or b) reading c) doing something productive.


Soo, that said... anyone need a ~14" TV? It's yours for free!

    I believe watching television turns your brain to tapioca pudding. Good decision.

    Good call.

    Fun fact - People have referred to me as the “old school fat kind” too… *sigh*

    Happy new year,

    But without TV, how would we watch sports?

    Although I agree, a TV in the bedroom is a terrible thing, it just causes people to fall asleep with the TV on or stay up later than they should watching it.

    My wife and I have been debating the same thing this year. We have not had it on this week so far and are considering getting rid of it. My problem is with the 3 kids. Let us know how it goes. Great blog.
