Raised catholic, did religious ed, catholic high school, made to go to church every week and on holy days of obligation. Then I went off to college, and dutifully got up the first sunday and went to church. While I was mumbling along with the Nicene creed, I thought, “But I don’t believe this stuff; in fact, I disagree with most of it.” I left quietly before the creed was over, and never voluntarily went back. I guess realizing I'm an atheist helped. 😄
plain old TV, and then add what you want? I have a flat screen, and a little roku box ($30 at Best Buy). I always wondered what you do if your Roku tv farts out--take the whole thing off the wall and tote it back to where you bought it? If something happens to my roku, or I don't want it anymore, I just unplug it.
-shrug- Neighbor had a multi generational history of digestive tract cancers. She got upper endoscopies and colonoscopies every other year. (Of course, she had them done at free standing surgical centers, so the price was considerably lower than in the hospital.) Don’t know how much she had to pay to have two feet of cancerous intestine removed in the hospital, though.
