Skip TV completely!

Why do you think it necessary to impose your opinion on the rest of
us? I like watching TV on the boat and I really like doing wireless
internet on the boat, and I'm old enough not to have to pretend that I
don't like it just because someone like you says I should be getting
away from it.

I'm retired after all. I'm not going out on the boat to relax from
being at work.

I don't particularly like cell phones. If I was going to get away
from something, that would be it.

Some people like string beans, some like beets, others can't stand either.
The bottom line is to do whatever makes *you* happy, and ignore
the comments of eggplant eaters.
Me? No TV....I'll get news from a radio.
If I want to watch a movie, I'll play a DVD on one of those 7" players.
(With a 30 foot boat it's about all that will work space-wise)
Do I need internet in the marina? Still trying to decide....email and weather would be nice.
Is a stereo a "must have" for me? You betcha...
Different strokes and all that..
