Turn Off TV Week

Damn, I missed the start of Turn Off TV week. I am not sure if Turn Off TV week really means anything to someone with a handful of DVRs. I guess to live up to it I would also have to unplug my DVRs. I know that some DVR users out there would say that they are already avoiding commercials by have a DVR. I think that is a week answer. Part of the problem is the culture TV shows are trying to sell you. Some shows are ripe with product placements. Other shows are selling unrealistic views of the world.

I keep on telling myself that watching TV is part of my job. I know I should watch less TV, but it is part of knowing my product really well. I wonder if I would ever get to a point in my life where I am watching no TV.
