The way that we watch television has certainly evolved over the years. There was a time when to change the channel we would have to make the long trek across the living room to flip the dial. Then along came the remote control which made everyone’s lives easier. However, we were still limited to just a handful of television channels. There were the three major broadcast networks ABC, NBC and CBS. Plus there are also local stations that served the needs of the community by broadcasting reruns of old sitcoms and classic movies. If you want to watch something on television you pretty much had to be home to watch it. Two major inventions changed all of that: cable TV and the VCR.With cable TV we were suddenly introduced to literally hundreds of channels to pick programs from. As one home in your neighborhood might have gotten cable TV it wasn’t long before everyone signed up. Cable TV brings us 24-hour news, premium movie channels and a wide diversity of programming that caters to everyone’s tastes. There is golf channel, a cooking channel, hunting channel and of course a movie channel. Now we had too much TV to watch and not enough time to watch it. Along came the VCR.
Thanks to video recording we could now program our favorite shows to record any hour of the day or night and watch them back at our convenience. Not only could we watch television programs that we recorded but we could rent or buy movies and other programs and build up a collection of our own. As with any kind of technology, cable TV and VCR have also evolved. Now we have satellite television, DVD players and digital recording. We also have the benefit of bringing the total movie watching experience right into our living room. This is thanks to the sophisticated surround sound entertainment systems we have available to install in our homes.
Nowadays, many folks have converted their living rooms into screening rooms. To get the most out of satellite viewing or Blu Ray movies you’ll need a cutting edge television. You’ll find this in the latest plasma or LCD television sets. In fact, widescreen televisions have been consistently top sellers for the past several holiday seasons. The issue then becomes for you what to do with your old television. The quick answer is to toss it out. But how?

Law and order. It’s what keeps our society from slipping into total anarchy. Each state and every city in that state is allowed to develop their own laws. There is usually a good intention behind every law, but sometimes the lawmakers either go too far or put a law on the books which needs to be removed. Tennessee is no exception. Here are some wacky laws still on the books in Tennessee:
Have you ever heard the expression “staging a house?” This is something that Nashville realtors do all the time to help them sell a home. Basically, when a realtor decides to take on a new property they have three choices: 1) try to sell it as is 2) sell it as an empty unit or 3) stage the house. For some reason they have found that staging a house is the most effective way of being able to slap a “Sold” sticker onto the “For Sale” sign.
