So I’m doing pretty good with this whole TV Turn-Off Week thing. I hardly watched any more TV after swearing it off yesterday. Let’s see: I watched an episode of The Shield, but I was working out on an elliptical while I was watching it. That doesn’t count, does it?
Oh, and I watched a few innings of the Yankees-White Sox game. And then McFury came over and we took a look at how cool this season’s first episode of BSG looked in high def on my big screen.
But from here on out, no more TV until next Monday!

Think of your family Nintzel. With TV off, Cricket will get the love and attention she deserves. You guys can do some real bonding, get the Monopoly out and read to her. That’s what TV Turn-Off Week is all about.
Jim, at this rate you ought to try vegetarianism. You’d be a great ovo-lacto-pollo-pesco vegetarian who eats the occasional burger to make sure they’re not using contaminated beef at Bob Dobb’s.
