The box itself is nothing special, just an old junker I lifted out of my parents' basement. The remote control is big and clunky and one of the volume buttons doesn't work at all. I also ran the cable into my room, just about the most mechanical thing I've ever done. The pile of books that constantly collects on the floor next to my nightstand now sits lonely and neglected. I like reading, I really do, but those old relics just don't seem to have the same draw anymore.
TV is easy.
So easy, in fact, that I've managed to become quite proficient at navigating my way through Cableworld in a very short amount of time. I wouldn't say I'm an expert, but I'm getting pretty good. You're a bit more conservative, try Fox News. Then, when you've seen both of those, you hit CNN to find out what's really going on. Fox Sports is a joke and Jim Rome is a dork.
