Update...

I have been recieving emails asking to show the video of a busted TV. I have yet to fulfill this promise. The television is still in storage.

Ever since school ended I have been leading a life of extreme laziness and grown fond again of technology. This past week has been the worst week of my life for this. All I did was watch television at my friends house and played video games on my computer.

I went to sleep last night knowing what had to be done. The final act of killing my television must serve as the break I need to get my creativity and life back on track. I have lost so many hours to TV since my TV fast ended that it feels like all I did was for naught.

Once I find a digital camera, I will do it as soon as possible. Not just for you, but a final act of rebellion against something that has control over me.

Stay Tuned!

Answers to Questions.

I should of started this quest after school was over. I wanted to update this blog everyday and do so much with the knowledge I have about television. I was so focused on school I didnt have time for anything fun. But, finals are now over, and so is my TV fast.

I still want this blog to be a place people can learn about the media, television, and the way it influences our culture and our minds. So I will continue to put information on here as I see fit.

I am waiting for the weekend to destroy my TV. Its still in storage and waiting for the sledgehammer. I dont miss movies at all, I still hate television, but video games are what I am going to miss.

So on Saturday I am hoping to have the film, then I will post it on this blog.

Its been so long!

Sorry for the lack of updates, but finals are approaching and I have been doing my damndest to get A's in both classes.

I almost failed my no TV for 30 days over the weekend. I drove over to a friends house; they were watching Shawn of the Dead. I wanted to hang out with them and not the television, and I felt awkward sitting in a corner reading. I found myself arguing that I only have 10 days left, cheating would be so bad. But I perservered and after the movie we had a writing/reading night to pass the time. We are thinking about starting our own writing group.

I have 8 days left of Kill Your Television! Then a big sledgehammer and a video camera witnessing the murder of my lifelong companion. I will upload the video the next day, and update this blog as much as I can until then. I will also keep posting on the blog after the 30 days is over and try to be a voice in the darkness against the glow that lightens your living room.
