Kill Your TV

I am often asked how I have time to make my own products on top of all the other things I do.  One reason is that I don't watch a lot of TV.  When I do watch, it is usually a documentary that I watch on my computer from www.pbs.org.  We will also occasionally watch educational DVDs as part of our homeschool.  I don't mindlessly channel surf, though.  When I sit down to watch something, I do it on purpose, for a purpose.  Even if I watch a movie, which isn't very often and is always very clean, I do it on purpose.

According to the A.C. Nielsen Co., the average American watches more than 4 hours of TV each day.  That is 2 months of nonstop TV per year!  In a short 65 year life, the average American will have spent 9 years watching television.  What could you do with 9 extra years of free time?

I'll tell you what I do with my extra 9 years.  I make stuff.  I hug my kids.  I fellowship with my Master.  I think.  I live life on my terms, not Prime Time's terms.  That's what I do.  What will you do?
