UNPLUG THE TELEVISION

Yes, it's possible to watch too much television.  It's possible not to read enough books.  Learning to unplug the television and reading a book instead can be a challenge.  I agree with you Gentle Reader when you tell me how addicting television is.  You need to see what happens in your favorite television show.  You need to see if your favorite game show contestant got the top prize.  You're life isn't complete without a television sitcom laugh track.  You can't make it through the day without an unrealistic car chase in your favorite movie or cop show.  However, it's possible to go for a day with the television unplugged.  I'm not saying that the television should be thrown out.  But it's also good to keep television viewing to a minimum.  Realize that there are other exciting things in life that isn't television related.  Besides, your favorite television show episode is going to end up on digital video disk that you can rent from the library on a later date someday.
