[TN Rhodey]

Ed,  As usaul your posts makes little sense. You are the one that wants to 
throw money at a problem (Iraq). I am against the same. TV has nothing to do 
with my opinion....how about yours? You constantly post about television. It 
would seem you watch way too much.....or are you commenting about what you 
don't watch?
