Leo in all fairness New York City ain't exactly cheap place to live. When my BiL was going to school at GIA his little studio apartment cost over two grand a month.
it's by "design", not an accident-- it's known as "the dumbing down of america". proof ? just turn on your tv, it's right there to make you stupid. as a moderator, i apologize for responding in such fashion,
Very simple solution to that Monk. Leave the *@%$ thing turned off. I've seldom bothered to turn the tv on for the past several years. It's handy to watch a dvd/blue ray now and then but that's about it. Saves on the electric bill. And yes, I have a big lcd screen digital, but only hooked up to antenna so I save on cable/satellite bills as well. IF the networks ever bother to program anything worth watching I'll be happy to oblige, but until then.
My own personal little boycott, gives me a lot of satisfaction.

I'm sure every young person in America looks forward to paying for a vocational education so he can enter the high paying career of furniture repairman. Don't they offer such a career path on the inside of matchbook covers?
