Cliff,

Switch to decaf, bud.  Those commercials pay the bills.  Always have.

For quite some time now it has been *only* about the money. From here on out it will always be ABOUT THE MONEY.

When Ad Execs find a way, they will eliminate the programs entirely and fill the time entirely with commercials.

Now on ABC's Good Morning America, the breaks are now 8 minutes long split in half by a 30 second 'still' showing temperatures across the country, covering half the screen and the sponsor's product covering the other half.

Thanks GOD for TiVo.

SCREW THEM!!!!!!!!!!
