Lets make April "Nobody use the Internet or watch TV" month and see what happens.
I'd actually rather see April be a "no one pay your taxes" month and starve this government into submission.

They're simply all getting out of hand... there seems to really be NOTHING that resembles a politician actually representing the people any more.. It would be nice to send a clear message that the people DO have the power in this country still.
what; we don't.. i thought they made that pretty clear by now... :P

Difficult to catch it on radio, I don't listen to radio at home, there are various mediums which provide music without commercials and inane disk jockey talk, such as IPOD, CD's, etc.

I agree with the idea that people need to get out more, but TV is critical to the Emergency Broadcast System. How many times have you caught an EBS alert on broadcast radio lately?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22025734 Fri, 06 Mar 2009 12:29:33 EDT Re: Of course... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22025451 morbo :
