January 26, New Television Update

My television has caused me nothing but grief!!! I am on my fourth antenae, with no improvement from the first one. But in the meanwhile, it has become more complicated. Come to find out, it is required that a person have a television license to do anything regarding a television, be it download television programs on your computer, or watch four channels with very poor reception!! When I bought my fourth antenae at Argos yesterday, I asked the sales girl about the license. She said that license police drive down streets and use some type of device to determine who is receiving radio signals, and can therefore, monitor who is licensed or not. We both felt that in a dorm room the chance of being detected was minimal. But no, not the case!!! Today I received a letter stating I needed a license or face a 1,000 pound fine with legal council required!!!!! Long story short, I am now licensed!!! No worries, this girl is not going to go to jail for watching television!!
I have tomorrow off, then do a stretch of 3 days at the hospital. Tomorrow will be my self-fortification day to gear up for the following 3!! Cheers!!
