Rule in my house: whoever is cooking controls the TV channel.

So I'm stuck watching some basketball game.

I understand it's a big one.

1. Rule in my house

Everyone has their own tv.

2. It's the sportsball that Trump hates the most

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that it's the professional sports league with the most black players (by percentage).

No matter who wins they've already been put on notice that no invitation to the White House will be issued.

3. No TV in my house.

But then I live alone, so if I had one I guess I'd control the channel.

4. I don't know

When we had a cat she loved golf and would meow very loudly until.............................we got her her own tv.

5. When I had cats

they didn't get a TV of their own! The poor deprived things.

6. What? No lying on the old fashioned console tv and swatting at balls?

The horrors!

In actuality, she did not like her new tv but rather coveted the big, like a piece of furniture, television that had to warm up. She would lay on top and watch golf (her favorite), tennis (too fast and almost gave her a melt down), basketball, baseball but oddly not football. I guess the too much wasted time between plays was not to her liking.

This was back in the 70s and to this day she was the best cat ever. Never went on furniture, tables or counters unless my mom would say, "this you may". She got an ottoman and, of course, the tv and one old kitchen chair. She would come when my mom called.

I hear that dog/cat owners now leave the tv on channels especially for pets because it keeps them out of trouble when no one is home.
