"Watching television is like taking black spray paint to your third eye." - Bill Hicks


16 years without a TV and still not bored! So many people complain that there isn't anything good on television but continue to pay the outrageous monthly fees to have the ol' idiot box in their home, Why? Makes no sense!

There are 1000s of things you can do other than watching TV like reading a book, drawing n painting, build a tree house (not the prefab Home Depot kind!), sit in the park and people watch and maybe even have a conversation with a stranger, volunteer at the local youth center, plant a tree or grow your own vegetables, discuss politics, go out and get people to vote...ANYTHING. Don't sit and get fat, get up stretch your legs, feel better and give back to your community.

Also in FreeArtWorcester's opinion the best TV shows are HBO's The Wire and of course Comedy Central's The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. You can rent The Wire from Netflix and watch The Daily Show and Colbert online all on your computer! Therefore never having to have that ugly box in your living room!
