TV

Last week I got a TV. Before that, I had just been watching movies on my laptop. I also got an antenna. The cool thing about antenna here is that its like basic cable. You get a ton of channels, music channels, and an onscreen guide. They call it Freeview. With it, I can pretty much watch Top Gear all day long. They also have some movie channels, which is good, because for as often as Top Gear is on, they tend to repeat the same episodes a lot. I was also able to watch the Super Bowl from home. But, it was on BBC, which has no commercials. So, when the rest of the word got the newest adds, I was cut to the BBC commentators (during the game, I did get the Madden broadcast though). What was really funny was their booth was obstructed by the pirate ship, so for as little as they understood the game, they couldn't see it anyway.
