The Media Runs your Life!

Everyday I wake up just like any other person here on this earth. I work a full days work at a place called ETC. ETC [ Electronic Theater controls ] is a great place to work. Great benefits and all but the lack of vision is amongst us. I have been working there for about 3 years now and i have totaly lost the vision of my life. Thats because I wake up at 5 in the morning and then I return to a blob on the couch after work. I watch everything that they want me to. I think of how I want to change my life but I can't the TV has sucked me into mono channeled homosapiane.

Anther great thing about my life and the place I work is, I work 9 hour days and on friday such as the one I am currntly living out. BUT living this life has turned me into a person I don't care to be. After working a nice long day, not including when I work overtime I need to recollect my strangth for the weekend. I sleep all day with the TV on! I can't get away! I get up and take a shower doesn't seem to help, Sometimes I do get off my lazy sack of crap and I do record some music and do some art the very thing that keeps my passion alive and i just become tired and go back to TV. TV is my idol not too mention there is a show called American Idol. Which really means watch me!

I REALLY want to cancel the cable and move out from the rock of nothingness BUT, I have a father in-law that watches the cable just as much as I do and when the cable was shut off for a day he went into a state of panic and went to his mothers house to watch tv untill further notice .

Charter, Direct tv, basic cable movie channels RUN YOUR LIFE! you have no control anymore!

I started thinking about how this was effecting me because I felt as if my mind was being taken away from by not using it so i did a little search and found real fast a few things that I agree with!

There are alot more studies and links you can search for your self and figure out if watching tv is good for you and your family! I have to run, I wish I could talk more about this but my time is up for today. Thanks for listening and remember to think before you act!
