Politics as Entertainment
Television offers us a lot of choices. News, movies, sports, cartoons, history, geography, and a plethora of dance and music competitions, you name it. You can also have the language of your choice.
I therefore have no rational explanation for almost rarely watching television. I prefer good old reading, walking at the Joggers Park conveniently located near my residence, swimming or actually fooling around the pool watching mothers of different shapes and sizes teaching their kids to swim. I am not so sure which.
The old girl watches the IPL matches and thinks I am mad not to join her.
I have been a professional cricketer and hate the way cricket has been desecrated, commercialized and milked dry of every joy it had to offer.
