had satellite already. Now we have both. I don't watch TV, so I think it's a crazy waste of money! Everybody wants more and more channels, and there's nothing on them anyway!!!!

i'm so sorry. i hope someday you can distract your family from the tube monsters. i'm glad you made it out of the box though. it gets lonely outside - i know, my family is trapped inside, too. i'm so grateful that jonathan started this board. don't you sometimes think we should get a group of ex-box-ers... and figure out a way to shanghai our siblings? hahaha... my siblings are adults and would probably have me arrested... but my family... i have a husband and three children. one is probably your age. i wish there were some way to convey how much of their lives is being sucked out of their brains and hearts... to convey the message and have the light go on.
