"I rarely post comments." Uh, sounds more like the old, "I don't watch tv." Yet, the person seems to know

whatever game-show, drama or sit-com is about and what day and time.  Don't recall where i heard or read that statement ("things that make ya go hhmmm...") about tv, but it made me chuckle.  

But back in tv days, you could have the set on channel whatever - where two guys were droning on about a political candidate's stand on whatever, and not even be in the livingroom listening to the discussion.  Each year or so, you'd get a program-ratings mailing, that you'd fill out and send back - or simply pitch it in the trash. 

So different nowadays.  The technology is so precise, a person's every click can be recorded.    So, acting accordingly, i may be curious about this and that, but am careful about searching out whatever.  And even so, for the most part (like 97-some percent of the time) have to ask myself, is whatever set of statements even partially true?  And so, with questions like that, from the very get-go, can only conclude, it's not worth the bother.
