Rarely anymore it seems does the conversations at work revolve around television shows. Then again where I take my break I am joined by a Muslim, a staunch Christian and an agnostic while I read the paper. Damn near anything on the front page gets a discussion going that is almost always more interesting than anything on TV.
Like many of the others, I have seemed to replace TV with surfing the Internet. Except for some NFL games and The Sopranos, I rarely turn the thing on. That isn't to say that the 'net is any better of an option though. IMHO, it has the same potential for couch potatoism as TV.
What I realize I need to do is exercise more and read more. But that seems easier said than done.
