    For television shows I'm still watching, "The Haunting Of The Hill House.", off and on again.

    I just got done watching the newest episodes of, "Vikings.", and I am excited things are picking up again. I really do like Ivar The Boneless. I don't know, there is something about fictional characters overcoming the most extreme adversity that just seems to draw me in. I like characters that are extremely passionate in what they do overcoming all odds, extremes, and limitations achieving victory in whatever endeavor they're embracing.

    Currently I'm watching a movie, "The Hunter's Prayer.", about a savage modern day assassin. I have a thing for spy and assassin novels from all historical eras.

    One of my favorite subjects for instance are the Shinobi of Japan.

    Very little, I cut cable for antenna, over a year ago. I get about 30 channels free.
    A 10$ HDMI cable from my laptop to TV, turns my TV into my computer monitor.
    PopcornFlix.com is a true free movie site, no registration just click play. Kinda B rate movies but actually free.

    I bought a $75 dollar amplified antenna and this gives me about 25 American/English speaking channels and another 25 in Mexican/Spanish for free.

    Assassin movies somewhat turn my stomach.

    I don't mind military sniper movies, just not assassinations.

    I consider the killing of UBL a military job not an assassination.

    Same with the killing of Yamamoto after Pearl Harbor.

    I thought antennas went out with analog?

    Sicario was an excellent movie illustrating government corruption and culpability in the Mexican cartel drug trade.

    Yeah, murder mystery television shows are good.

    I like hired guns and professional killer movies.

    I'm also a big fan of all the 007 James Bond movies too.

    I like stuff that deals with secret agents and top secret impossible missions, you know that sort of genre.

    Well "Zero Dark Thirty" should be a great movie for you, which shows how the CIA located UBL. And then the Navy together with U.S. Army helo transport wasted him.

    But if you kill a drug lord it is a victimless crime.

    The best kept secret of modern amplified antenna's is that you can get 50 free channels (half Spanish however) and all your local stations and news FREE.

    Go to Best Buy and ask where the "amplified antennas" are stocked.

    They will show you.

    Read the boxes and take your pick. A good one costs around USD $100.00 .

    Buy one, take it home, set it up, and plug it into your tv.

    You don't need cable.

    You don't need satellite.

    I get ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, BBC on PBS, DW on PBS, MH World, Ion, Escape, ME-TV, Comet, Grit, Movie Net, and others.

    More than you could ever need or want. Free.

    In real life, the lady CIA agent did not cry.

    She walked over and looked at UBL's body and said, "Fokk looks like I am out of a job now."

    Right now, I am watching almost nothing on TV. I watch the NASCAR races on weekends, but that's about it. University of Oregon Ducks football too.
