Benefits of No TV: Pt. 1

(Besides the obvious benefits of being disconnected from the whole celebrity worship, cop culture and rampant paranoia...)

I did not know that there was a World Series going on until I saw this controversy being reported at Yahoo. I didn't know that the football season had started until a student was ranting about the Bengals in one of my classes last week. Once, these seasons marked my calendar for me (celebrity pantheon rules our world marked by seasons centered around sporting events, award shows, and political campaigns) now they are of no concern... (of course I have other interests, but it is really nice to excise the boob tube)
