They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
I think the two above are worth more than that.
I have no idea what this is.
I'm finally all moved in here in Milwaukee, so have finally gotten to mess around with the TV channels, which are different than Kenosha.
It was late the other night, and I was flipping through the basic cable channels when I see this giant picture of Poland on the screen.
That's it. Poland.
There is no sound, nothing. Just this picture. For what seemed like an eternity.
Now I'm hooked. How can I not see what comes on next? I mean, what could this mean?
So what comes up next? Croatia.
Again, no sound, subtitle or anything. Just that picture. How awesome was that?
At that point, I didn't want to see what came on next. I didn't want to ruin it for myself, so I changed the channel.
To an auction that was promoting "56 full cans of beer."
I love Milwaukee public television.
