00:00:01.050 --> 00:00:03.840 align:middle line:84%
I watch a lot of TV,
but there's a difference

00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:09.780 align:middle line:84%
between watching TV
and watching cable TV.

00:00:09.780 --> 00:00:12.493 align:middle line:90%
Watching cable TV is a life.

This is called "Good
Morning, Little Schoolgirl."

"On the one hand, I know we're
talking about television,

00:00:23.490 --> 00:00:24.900 align:middle line:90%
and it's boring.

00:00:24.900 --> 00:00:28.260 align:middle line:84%
On the other hand, I'm talking
about cable television, which

00:00:28.260 --> 00:00:31.200 align:middle line:84%
is a lot of different
kinds of boring.

00:00:31.200 --> 00:00:35.340 align:middle line:84%
Cable TV, with a 40 inch screen
and appropriate sound system,

00:00:35.340 --> 00:00:37.950 align:middle line:90%
is future psychology.

00:00:37.950 --> 00:00:41.070 align:middle line:84%
The only difference is being
that it's less interesting

00:00:41.070 --> 00:00:42.690 align:middle line:90%
and works.

00:00:42.690 --> 00:00:46.290 align:middle line:84%
Chemical, electrical,
experiential, or appropriately

00:00:46.290 --> 00:00:48.750 align:middle line:90%
varietal, you change.

00:00:48.750 --> 00:00:53.250 align:middle line:84%
You change the channel, and
let's take channels seriously.

00:00:53.250 --> 00:00:54.540 align:middle line:90%
You change.

00:00:54.540 --> 00:00:57.540 align:middle line:84%
It's like taking touch
typing for no credit,

00:00:57.540 --> 00:01:01.620 align:middle line:84%
pass, fail, by which
Lightnin' Hopkins learned

00:01:01.620 --> 00:01:06.532 align:middle line:84%
to play the accordion by
common sense and feel."
