So says the advertising on my blog.

I actually had one of those devices for a while, it was an $30 over-the-air digital TV tuner that I plugged into my HDMI monitor worked for about a year before it stopped working. Not sure what broke in it, maybe it was a bad capacitor in the power supply, but regardless I wasn’t that upset when I tossed it into the fire. Kind of stunk when I burnt it up, but not as bad as what it brought into my home – television.

Truth is I found television to be so alienating, with the bright and colorful, fast moving pictures, the endless fear of crime and worship of the police, military and government more generally. Don’t you know the criminals and terrorists are creeping outside of your window! The parades of endless politicians to adore and villianize on your TV every night, as you chew down on your microwaved frozen steak and mashed potato like substance in front of your TV. Honestly, it stunk more using it then that wad of ABS plastic and vinyl covered power wire crackingling in the fire what now was so many years ago.
