I am having just way too much phone with Photoshop today.
Since I did away with television/cable/satellite TV, I have more time to listen to music and do fun things.
So today you get two Caturday posts.
Here is my new band, the Gear Cats:
I am a little concerned about my band mates. Two are sleeping on the job, two look totally disinterested, one is angry, and the other one is sticking her tongue out at me. Should I be concerned about our future and a multimillion dollar recording contract?
Take three and a half minutes out of your day and enjoy the following video, “The Mean Kitty Song.” The cat looks like Zoey the Cool Cat, but I promise you it’s not her and that’s not me singing and dancing!

MOL! Thank Cod my human is not the kind to make such a video, or she would get the bitey from me =^.^=

How long ago did you ditch TV etc?

About a week ago. The only things we were watching were sports, USA network, and reruns of sitcoms that we’ve seen a few billion times.

Okay! Because I am very fed up with our TV/cable etc. and have been considering cancelling it.

If you want to watch something specific, you can watch at YouTube (Jim does All In The Family on YouTube), Hulu, Netflix, Blockbuster, etc. A lot of stuff is free, especially reruns of stuff that is off air now, so if we’re watching reruns, why pay? Live sports costs, but even if we watch 10 live sporting events and pay for them, we’ve still saved $70 a month over cable!

Indeed! Just need to persuade my husband!

I have an extra computer that I use for backup purposes and I’m going to hook it up to our big television so that we can watch things on it. I like to multitask when the TV is on, so I don’t want to be using my two main computers for televisions.

That’s a good idea. I could probably do something like that too if I can make my son’s old computer work.

Great video! I love cats but they have never been terrible, just loving type.
Thanks Russ for camping on my blog, you should do it more often since you’ve done away with TV. 🙂

I used to go by everyone’s blogs about once every 14-17 days. Then I got hit with virus, malware, and just all sorts of mean and nasty people hacking through all my firewalls and anti-virus software. I lost two computers to them and then still had to fight them for another three months. That was an ongoing process from July 13 to October 27. I haven’t been attacked ately, so maybe they have finally give up on me. I hope so. In valuing my time at $100/hour, I estimate that the lost hardware and software, and my time, cost me about $143,000 over the last 3½ months.
During those 3½ months, though, I got so far behind that I never will catch up. I don’t know what to do other than to keep calm and carry on.

I’m sorry that happened Russ, It happened to me only once, years ago but that was when I had PC OS I use only Mac OS and never had any problems.since then.
Well, I guess you’ll have to work more to recover your financial decline. It’s been a while already that I shut off all my computer system including modems, routers, aux.drives etc. when I go to sleep. 🙂

All my stuff gets shut off, too. I’ve been doing that since I was a Novell CNE back in the 1990s. Anytime you’re connecting to the Internet, though, you’re at risk, even with Mac’s. Two decades ago no one cared about Mac’s because there weren’t enough to make it worthwhile for the bad people. Now there are.

Love your Gear Cats! So many people I know are giving up TV. Good for you! I often wish we could let it go, but my husband isn’t ready to do that yet.

I think there was more (watchable) stuff on TV in my little hometown in 1965—three stations: ABC, NBC, CBS—than there is now with 500+ channels.
