Default Re: How I got rid of my TV...

Dien --

The way we got rid of the TV initially was -- it broke! The TV we had quit working so I threw it away. We were too busy to buy another one right away. After a few weeks we noticed we kind of liked not having one. It looked funny our TV stand with just an antennea and a VCR but no TV. Then someone gave us a large TV and we fell back in the habit. Later we decided to put it in the garage (right after the Branch Davidian seige ended - about an hour from where I lived at the time) and it's been there ever since.
