The Average American watches 4 hours of television a day,
The Tv is on for 7 hours and 40 minutes in the average Home,
doesn't that seem like way too much?
We all need to be more in touch,
With Family, Friends & read,
These kinds of things we need,
Most, need to watch Less,
Have some cohesiveness ,
And spend time together,
Read, exercise, enjoy the Weather
Fifty Percent of Households have 3 or More Televisions Sets and some,
large size,,
And one thing, I was surprised,
That on average, Parent's spend less then 40 minutes in meaningful
conversation, not much quality time,
Neither do they dine,
Or have Children complete homework before hand,
Television is in high demand,
Only One in Twelve, Make sure schoolwork is done,
Before they hang out with friends, watch tv, have fun. (:
Fifty-six % of children between 8 and 16 have a television in their
room,
And fifty % of adults recognize they watch too much do not stimulate
their brain,
Use the tv to Keep them entertained,
And to relax and unwind,
Rather then find something to improve their mind
Read a book, Play a game or watch the News,
Instead, mindless entertainment, they choose,
Some watch Desperate Housewives or these Reality shows,
Not sure why, who knows?
WE never watched American Idol or Animal Planet,
We much rather surf the net,
Chat on the Phone or Broadcast on ACB R I,
Watch Justice Files, Law and Order or CSI.
Would rather watch Evidence with Dale Hinman and Court Tv,
Yet sometimes, we will watch Tv Land or Nick,
If not, read a book or see a flick. (:
We also like Lifetime or L M N,
The Lifetime Movie Channel, but not as much as some Women and Men,
We do not watch 4 hours of tv a day, maybe on the weekend,
When, we want to relax and get on the mend,
From working all week,
And more worthwhile programming we seek. (:
Based on how much tv people do watch and with Family they do not
share,
Its no wonder the state of Affairs,
Both Domestic and Foreign,
Is not great,
at this rate,
It may be too late,
Our Society is dieteriating,
That, some, may be debating ,
Yet,in my Opinion, this is the case,
And most Tv Programs are a waste .
And since, This is " turn off Television week" today until may
One,
Find something else to have fun,
And spend time with your loved ones,
Family Members, Friends, or take time for yourself,
It will improve your health ,
If you do this more then just this week it will change your life, so
do make,
Some adjustments, time,it will take,
Habits, are hard to break,
Yet,not impossible, you can do this,
AT first, tv, you will miss,
And I am not saying, do not watch any at all, maybe, cut it in
half?
Find something else to do, to make you laugh?
To provide Entertainment,
Time is better spent.
Speaking of time spent,
My first two hours of work went,
Passed, 8 hours more before for home I leave,
And do these Statistics you believe?
And Darrell, You sent me Mail ,saying I am too quiet because I have
not written yet today,
Everything is okay,
Wrote Jeff mail while you were sleeping away,
And now working on the KDD for today, alright?
Not sure, it should be posted to the site?
Take care and stay well hope your day goes alright
And remember all, Watch Main Menu tonight,
Chris Gray will be the Guest he will demonstrate a new glucometer,
Not a bird Feeder,
Or Curtis Chong describing the NFB reader,,
It is very exciting, this can change the lives for diabetics,
It will be on at 6,
Here in the West,
And from one to three UTC
And need to go but here is today's KDd.
