So many TV commercials are about selling high dollar automobiles but I wonder how many people who buy these cars watch TV. Bob DeWoody My motto: Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow as it may not be required. This no longer applies in light of current events. |

Last year I bought a Samsung digital TV set in order to watch TV without the decoder attached to my old analog Philips TV. Now I have a new PC and am using the new TV set as monitor. Goodby TV. Tullio |

Every one watches TV. Pre-Eric (circa 1989-1992) I did not own a tv. I was insufferably snotty and holier-than-thou about it too. Eric could not live without television, so when we became a couple television became a part of my life. Now I park my ample behind upon the couch and let my brain rot on a terrifyingly regular basis. |

Well back in my very early days of being a young snot nosed semi adult. ( 18 ) I thought after watching those High karote adds I could wear that and get girls. I have been a non believer in TV adds ever since:) I have worked second or 3rd shift most of my life. I only record what I really want to to watch. And BLOW BY the comercials. [/quote] Old James |

I only watch the news every night. One movie on blu ray disc. On weekends formula one and soccer league. Thats without comercials. With each crime and every kindness we birth our future. |

I have never owned a Mercedes. I have given them away as gifts. Drove a BMW for about 10 years, a Ferrari for 20, and gave my ex a Cadillac Escalade. I have always had a TV, but my watching is minimal. Sunday Morning, F1 and occasionally the news. Today I own 2 TV's but no cable service. They are for my kids to play computer games and movies. I do have Netflix, but they never seem to have anything I want to watch. So I really don't watch TV. |

I love Tv. I've never had a Cadillac or a Mercedes, so I guess my tv habit has ruined me. ;~} The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

I have never owned a Mercedes. I have given them away as gifts. Good try. There were good financial reasons for the gifts. Let's just say there was a good return on investment. |

No TV here either. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy it, when I visit people that have one. My familie likes those expensive cars and yes they watch TV. Mind you, they are all in Europe and the Commercials are just funnier. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |
