21st century update

this is kent btw. i just wanted to jump online and blog in response to the last post by nellie. verizon did show up today and hooked us up with internet and cable. it is great to finally be a part of the 21st century and have more tv at your fingertips than you could ever possibly watch. but i mainly wanted to post because nellie made a little comment about how she is super pumped to get cable and watch sportscenter every night. she was of course joking. once sportscenter came on tonight she went and took a shower. clearly not that pumped. but i just wanted to post in my defense because the first show we watched tonight wasnt sportscenter. it was a show about free birthing. what is free birthing? its crazy women who insist on giving birth outside a hospital without any medicine or chamber maids. they just sit in their tub and do their thing while their husband films it with a video camera. it was disgusting, or fascinating depending on who you ask. i couldnt stand the sight, or sounds of the show. nellie was glued to the tv. so while she pokes fun at my shows and makes it sound like cable is going to make her life miserable, dont give her too much sympathy, there is plenty for her to watch. we guys get a bad rap because we supposedly watch TOO much sports and for whatever reason that means that women cant watch anything or there isnt anything for them to watch. but thats totally false. women are watching just as much as men, its just that all of the programs that only they like dont fall into one genre, like men with sports. their shows range from oprah, to shows about unattractive british women giving birth, to shows where they teach you choreographed dance moves from india - also the first 3 shows recorded on our dvr.
