Last but not least: The reign of the TV

God created the world, man created the television. And that's where he got stuck. While Grandma falls down the stairs, Scarlett Johansson sheds a tear: "Of course Grandma has to wait for the happy ending until you get the idea to call her an ambulance.I watch TV, therefore I am. If the TV, the games console and the computer are taken away from me, I am completely different, according to the British BBC. In fact, two dozen 7 and 8-year-olds were subjected to this tough test and lo and behold: suddenly they were doing their homework with great enthusiasm, they were more well-rested, board games were suddenly a hit with the family and the good old radio made a roaring comeback.
Oh how nice it is to return to true values. Mommy sings a lovely song while cooking, Daddy smokes his pipe while reading the newspaper and the children draw pictures for Grandma, who has just been accompanied down the stairs by the youngest. And I wish I had my beloved television back. Because it's not the TV, it's the people watching it. Anyone who is mentally nourished and doesn't want to do without virtual entertainment has already noticed that granny's vision has deteriorated; so, fully informed, he has chosen glasses for her so that she can see the stairs.
