My daughter gave me a new HD TV for Christmas. I spent the whole day trying to figure out how to delete recorded shows. The bad thing was, I misplaced the intruction manual. I missed the old TV remote control when you can only turn the TV on and off and scan the channels. There's good side and bad side of this new tech thing but it is making my life soooooo complicated. frustrated frustrated frustrated very mad

You have the embrace the powers of modern technology. They allow us to make the same mistakes...twice as fast.

I think it separates us isolates us.... no longer are ides and opinions and entertainng conversations shared, because of technology we sit within a home of our own making conversing hours on end to a flat screen even or nessasry abilty to listen is becoming impaired.

all sports can be animated and played withing the cubicle we cal our home.
the good side is all propaganda, when life becomes too easy for the masses bad things are gonna come...I remember the eastern grid power failure in US so many people without food,gas communication (cellphones conviences can opener , coffee maker microwave.. all because someone did or did not pulled the big electric plug... it was a bizzare event how without all technology we as humans got by.

Modern technology sucks! Too many remotes and if they could just invent something to clap your hands and they would appear from under the sofa or wherever they've been hiding...that would be great! Also the device they invent needs to be waterproof...I have a 3 year old...and a fish tank. rolling on the floor laughing

Not a bad Idea to have a fish tank to play with the remotes in, mine always used the toilet.

Technology wise, cell phones and the problems w/when you need them you are out of the service range. dunno
