Kind of getting sick of it!

So as of February 17 of this year, we were supposed to be all digital for our TV signals. All of those people out there with TVs older than dirt were supposed to get one of those converters that they could get for like 10 cents with some voucher coupon thing.

Then Congress decided this was a crucially important problem that warranted legal action to postpone the transition because some people may not be able to watch TV because they were too lazy or too stupid to go out and do something about their ancient TVs. Seriously?! Since when did TV become such a necessity that Congress needed to push back the transition 4 MONTHS?

(Granted, I tend to feel TV is a necessity of sorts, but that’s beside the point because I’m ready for this analog to digital conversion.)

Anyway, I’m getting tired of the commercials telling us to go out to get the converter box, and the commercial with news people from each major local station telling us to go out to get the converter box, and the scroll at the bottom of the TV every so often telling us to go out to get the converter box. Enough already! If you don’t have the converter box yet, after being told about it months and months ago, too bad for you! Listen to the radio!
