Tele----Vision

‘Why don’t you buy a TV’ is the most common advice I am getting these days. Or a few will express it in a more shocking way. ‘You mean you don’t have a TV’. There are many more things which I do not have for that matter. But TV just stands out of all these. I am still single, becoming fat and do not have a moon reaching career seems unimportant when my not having a TV issue comes up.
One of my very good friends forcibly bought me a TV tuner card so that I can watch TV on my laptop. But little did he know that I will not accept it so easily. The card is still packed intact and occupying a very big portion of my not so big shelf.
Few suggested me to buy a second hand TV, just in case it is the matter of money. I also can sell the second hand one and will not end up paying much. But my slightly uneconomical mind does not agree to that either. In the recession times I guess these ideas will work wonders for both the common man and companies.
Seems that having TV gives you a Tele----Vision means a more clear and future oriented look on your thought process. Or may be it is like wearing a U@#$%^&*@. ‘Oh you mean you are just relaxed today’.
TV is like a ‘Biwi’. For bachelors very much loved and useful and for married another affair. What more you can ask for when both husband and wife are having an affair with the same thing.
I never was a visionary and will never be; I guess (till I buy one Tele---Vision). But if you really want to kill the time without even noticing, TV is the one.
But somehow I am trapped in this whole mess as I do watch a particular TV show on my laptop via internet. This does not weaken my argument of having a vision free life. As it is I am not doing anything to achieve my vision; if at all I have one!!!!


P.S. - Replace TV with Aim or Vision or Goal and then read...May be it will make more sense...But for me it still remains the same.
