Now they came out with the DVD Box set, so I no longer have cable :) :love: The only reason I had cable for the longest was for Golden Girl reruns.

BTW...my kids and I quit TV cold turkey three years ago. It turned out to be much easier than I anticipated. We still have the TV for watching DVDs, of course, and for playing XBOX, but that's it. I've taught my kids to use the internet to explore sources for news and information, as well as reading the local newspapers. I am proud to say that CNN, FOX, CBS, MSNBC, and ABC are NOT sites that my kids visit. They get news and information from CBC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, PBS, CTV and Global. They actually know something about what is going on in the world, something which they would not get from the US-based sites. I'm so proud. :) Sigourney was absolutely gorgeous in that movie…
