You’re my new hero. I’ve been trying to cancel cable for about, oh, almost 12 years now. I never had it before my wife and I met. Even today we watch only about two hours a week on average (we’re readers) so I’m not sure why she wants it. She says when she does want to watch she wants it available then and there. But it seems like a waste to me. We pay for premium channels too and don’t even watch them most of the time.
On the other hand, we like movies and are all geared up with the last gen of Pioneer Kuro televisions and HD so, at least, the football game looks amazing and the grass a natural green.

At the risk of thread jacking accusations… What are you reading these days? My wife and I read a lot too, and I’m always looking for recommendations.
Here’s a couple things I’ve read lately that I enjoyed.
Son of Hamas by Mosan Hassab Yousef Really a fascinating autobiography of growing up in Palestine and becoming an Israel Spy.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl who Played with Fire and the The Girl who Kicked the Hornets Nest. By Stieg Larsson Just plain fun reading
The Time Travelor’s Wife. Audrey Niffenegger The premise of this book is a bit hookie, and I found bits of it a bit uncomfortable (he travels back in time and starts falling in love with his wife when she’s very young) but there is something very human and touching about this novel.
Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. Interesting autobiography/fictional account of escaping from prison and going to India and becoming involved with the Indian Mafia.
On my next book list is Songs of Blood and Sword by Fatima Bhutto. Looks good, but have only read a few pages so far.
Also recently finished Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. Good, but not nearly as good as all the reviews make it out to be.

ps. Improve you life, disconnect the cable.
