How much is the average TV time a day?
Here it's said to be about 3 hours a day which is very possible, but I
find this terrific (it's about how much I spent a week).

An average of 1,745 hrs in 2003. That's almost 5 hours a day!!!

I watch exactly zero. No TV. None. Not ever.

Same here, except for part of the evening news. Plus right now we are
watching a 6hr+ movie that'll take another 3-4 days to complete :-)

Come winter I'll watch "Once upon a Time in the West" another time.

What IS it about that movie that thrills you so?

The music by Enio Morricone, for one. Then the theme, the actors, and
the great detail in the scenes. Best Western of all times, IMHO. I think
this winter will be viewing #14 or so.


Wow, that's more times than I've seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail,
which is probably around 10 or 12 times.

Don't know what my favorite western is, but my favorite movie is
Princess Bride.


Ours is "My big fat Greek Wedding". Especially since friends of ours
said that their story is nearly the same WRT the marriage ceremony and
preparations. And yes, the husband also wasn't Greek Orthodox at first
so he had to go through the same baptismal procedure. He has so far
staunchly refused to show pictures.



12th Night, the one with Imogen Suggs and Ben Kingsley.
