TV Tutorial

Does anyone have some kind of tutorial for watching TV, for Luddites?  Seriously.  I’m looking for

  • How to use a cable box with a TV concurrently
  • How to switch from the cable box to the  VCR
  • How to change channels with the cable remote and change the volume with the TV remote

I’m getting kind of tired of certain older immediate family members calling me about this and want to knock it out of the way.

Despair Posters

I previously bought and framed a Madness poster from Despair.com.

Well, I bought 3 more on a sale a couple of months back or so, and I finally framed them today.  I just need to put them up.  Karen told me that I need some kind of theme to my apartment and I am slowly getting it…

People in the gym watching tv

Sometimes I go into the gym and see someone just sitting there watching TV. It’s annoying for two reasons: 1) They aren’t exercising and so you might feel self-conscious (I don’t but I think other people who are exercising could) and 2) they are occupying the major form of entertainment in the gym. I wish they would just buy a TV.

Today was the first time I have seen a whole family in the gym watching TV.  Ugh!!!

On a related note, karma points go out to Shu who’s been coaching me long distance.  I made it up to 2.45 miles today in my 30 minutes!  I know this isn’t great in the long run but I was wheezing out around 1 mile a few months ago, and I’m so much better now.

Sorry, but I don’t know how to say “don’t import this to Facebook,” so you’ll get a repeat basically on your newsfeed.
