I suppose someone reading this is thinking “Well buddy, why don’t you just turn the TV off?” Well… I’ve been loving alone (with the exception of a pet cat or two) since 1983 and over the years I’ve gotten into the habit of usually having something on in the background. My stereo, radio or the TV. I guess it just feels comforting to have “noise’ on. Unfortunately, with the TV, and to a lesser extent the radio, at this time of the year that means dealing with political ads. Many, many political ads. And this is only the spring!

Wait until the fall.
