Where I work we have a public forum where people can ask questions about any topic they want and usually they will get a response. Today someone asked if they needed to get a cable box for every one of their 8 TV’s while using AT&T’s Uverse. 8 TV’s! I was floored. What made it worse was that there were 4 immediate responses back from people claiming to have 7 TV’s, recording 4 shows at once, etc, etc. I post health questions out there and I don’t here anything back for weeks, if ever!

I know in our society TV reigns but I think 8 TV’s is a bit excessive. We have 3 in our house and one never gets turned on, one gets turned on in the morning for news, weather, and traffic and the other gets turned for maybe a few hours a week. I honestly cant remember the last time I sat down to watch a television show. I think it was the season finale of “So You Think You Can Dance” (which I consider a great show that really shows the fitness level needed to be a dancer, BTW)

In a world where obesity numbers are increasing expotentially, do we really need a service that allows you to record 4 shows at once? Who has the time to sit down and watch 4 shows?  One of the biggest excuses I hear for not working out is a lack of time. If you have time to watch 4 shows, you have time to do a 20 minute workout. It just comes down to what you feel is more important I guess.

Any other thoughts on this?
