Besides, why should I be enthralled by Banacek instead of some other show? I suppose I would have to get psychoanalyzed to know, and, well, I guess I had rather spend the time watching Banacek.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998366140030113982.post-2514980506967519842010-09-15T14:12:32.148-05:002010-09-15T14:12:32.148-05:00You know, it really could be just as simple as wat...You know, it really could be just as simple as watching <i>Banacek</i> takes you back to a time that you were young and happy. The world is pretty scary right now, so it makes perfect sense to me that people are taking refuge in the past.Hairball T.

Sure, he's arrogant and sexist, and, sure, those are his GOOD points, but I've still been hooked for years now, partly because they take me back to when I was young and newly married. One of the women in the opening scene even looks like Peggy. I've never felt that way about any other show, and I'm sure it says a lot about me psychologically--I just wish I knew what it was.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998366140030113982.post-6388731713808927222010-09-15T13:03:02.158-05:002010-09-15T13:03:02.158-05:00Banacek is DEFINITELY on my list of DVDs to buy!Banacek is DEFINITELY on my list of DVDs to buy!Hairball T.

In fact, I'm going to do just that because the ones I bought when they first came out are already wearing out due to frequent usage. <br /><br />I watch PBS almost exclusively, so a cheap antenna works well for me because there is a whole row of big broadcast towers a mile from here.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998366140030113982.post-52688651248001935142010-09-13T04:58:20.867-05:002010-09-13T04:58:20.867-05:00Good Morning Snowbrush,

Sadly, none of the channels I receive show Banacek. :(<br /><br />I could likely pick up a few more channels if I worked on improving my antenna. I'm planning to work on that project a little later on.Hairball T.

If not, think what all you could get if you DID have an antenna.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998366140030113982.post-65277826740491393912010-09-12T18:51:30.478-05:002010-09-12T18:51:30.478-05:00Thanks for your good wishes, Lidian!

I wish Joan could come and organize my life right now - I have a feeling she'd deal with stress a bit better (or, hmmm, maybe not).<br /><br />Moving is a pain long after the actual move, isn't it? Hope things get better and better every week!Lidianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14609618027313982020noreply@blogger.com
