R.I.P. Television

Behold! My first blog.


The reason I have decided to compose this blog is because at the moment i find myself without the object that seems to have become one of the most important objects to the life of the twenty-something. And that is... the television. For some reason it seems that my television has blown out and i am forced to seek divertissment elsewhere. All is not lost for this gives me the occasion to purchase a new TV and work through some of my reading.

It also gives me the grand and glorious opportunity to commune with all the public, un tete a tete, if you will, a meeting of the minds. Perhaps TV has caused us to neglect our full capacity in favour of mindless, diversionist, amusements. Maybe it will do me better to full my mind with the indulgent sounds of some soft, languid music, French Baroque perhaps? Under today's leaden sky, with its frosty weather, perhaps that would be best. I of course love television as much as any other, but I fear it may be some time before I get another.

Alas!! Today is the day that my television died. We had fun together. We watched world cinema and porno, the news, fine feature films, and mindless nonsense. The very day my television passed into etenity is indeed the very day that I came to MySpace for the first time. I will see this as proof of the fact that MySpace has some part to play in the new diversons that I will have to cultivate sans(without) television.

This has been the fist topic of my first dicorse with the MySpace public, there will be others. Some on more lofty matters, and others of a far more debauched variety. I welcome any topics for possible blogs, and I encouge everyone to consider: What would you do with no television? The TV is our constant companion from birth. It is the white noise in our homes, even when its just on and we are not watching it. How would you divert your mind? You are not allowed to seek a television substitute. How will you fare? Untill next time! A tout a l' heure!
