"three Million" Channels and Nothing To Watch

As I turn on my Plasma TV, right here in front of me.

This is what I find first:

 A Shopping Channel (so rehearsed)

The weather Channel (oh great, snow)

Cable channel music (Christmas music~slow)

Decorating Channel (oh, gee)

Discovery Channel (lots to see) 

Spanish Channel (What?)

Infomercials (shut up!)

Food Channel (try and ignore)

Rerun Channels (such a bore)

News Channels (negativity)

Game Channels (positivity!)

How cute is this. Yeah...get 40+ channels...and nothing to watch that's worth it! That's when I go to the computer, and struggle over a poem to write! :) ~ Love, Carrie
