And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
15 years no TV now, don't miss any of it. Got a plasma 12 volt DC, no smart TV, air gapped from everything but the 12vdc fork truck battery the solar panels charge, only got for for watching occasional CD's, and maybe a few tines a year we watch vintage, like J Wayne or Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns,
I have a room full of laserdiscs and player. But it won’t work with my current TV. VCR players were crazy expensive when they first came out. My brother in law spent over a thousand dollars (late 1970s dollars) on a betamax.
Can’t miss Dallas or more importantly Soap…
ReplyDeleteThose were pretty flippin' big for what they did. - RSLynes
ReplyDeletePriced between one and two thousand dollars...I bought several back then.
ReplyDeleteSon: "Dad, why can't we watch a Dallas Cowboys Superbowl game?"
ReplyDeleteDad: "Because we don't have a VCR."

DeleteReminds me of this classic John Prine song.
ReplyDelete"Blow up your TV
Throw away your paper
Go to the country
Build you a home
Plant a little garden
Eat a lot of peaches
Try an' find Jesus on your own"
