#9 – High-Definition Television
A couple of years ago, Aprill and I bought a high-def television. It’s not the only television we have – so we’re not a 100% high-def household. But when you want to see it and see it good, you go to the high-def.
Most people love the sports on high-def – and I’m no exception. But it’s the nature television shows that really shine in high-def. The animals, landscapes, underwater and up close shots in natural settings sparkle. When I first heard about HD, my first reaction was “what’s wrong with that picture – it’s pretty good.” I can even remember the first one I saw. We were in Chicago with our friends Mark and Terry Skup, shopping on Michigan Avenue. We went into a store, and they had a 42″ plasma screen.
I didn’t say goodbye to my television that day…but I did in my heart!
