I would probably not care about television if I wasn't addicted to football and baseball. However, I do enjoy films as well. And I hate going to theaters. Since advertising is my main source of income, I have to keep an eye on what's out there. This also makes my television a tax deduction. Take away a few of those things, and I'd be right where you are. Paul On Dec 17, 2006, at 4:53 PM, Digital Image Studio wrote:
