After a galling 1/2 hour spent with a Comcast "tech help" guy who never would tell me why I no longer have metv on my available channels, I've been thinking back to childhood days.
No TV in our house until I was 6th grade or so. Entertainment was radio. Of course, no cell phones or the net then. You know, it wasn't bad...prompted me into thinking of going back to it. I'd miss you guys, tho.
So, if I suddenly drop off the web...it may not mean I'm dead. It may mean I really cut the cord. Seriously, the more cable TV I watch, the more I like my old stereo...
No wifi where I live, so many of the cable cutting options to still have TV and net not open to me.
Of course, it could also mean I've croaked...which might not be so bad either. At 76, I don't feel like I belong in the current brave new world of post 1984.
