3 Years Cable and Satellite Free

We haven't had cable or satellite for three years. Seriously.

What are we missing? Apparently not a lot. The revamping of shows like Bewitched, The Connors, and Charmed. These are tired wore out shows that no one cares about. The Connors might as well be pulled from the air. Roseann made that show as popular as it was in the '90s. Bewitched was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. Charmed is being dragged from the grave which it should have stayed. The point is when you have a good show like Little House on The Prairie, don't do spin-offs with the same characters. Look at what made it work and then duplicate that.

Growing up I watched shows like Leave It to Beaver, Andy Griffin Show, Little House on The Prairie, and the Waltons. These where wonderful shows and I wouldn't think twice about letting daughter watch them. As a teen, I enjoyed Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I loved the cat's sarcasm. I also lived and breathed for the videos on the real MTV. Keep in mind I grew up with the first generation of MTV. I loved the Saturday Night Metal Show. I found so many bands and artist which I still listen to, like Michael Monroe, and Hanoi Rocks.

We do have Hulu which we both enjoy. I have made my stance clear about these rubbish shows. Lucky for me, my daughter agrees that most of them are garbage which isn't fit for a dog to watch. So, for now, we will be staying with Hulu and YouTube. There is enough stuff there to watch. We do have an antenna which works quite well. Do I miss it? No.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
