My dad has always loved them, and I used to try to watch the shows with him but I could not find the humor in them :)<br /><br />We gotcha 2-1 this season (unless we meet again in the tournament).

Surely that wasn't only during pledge week. <br /><br />We are so lucky here to get three PBS stations. May be on borrowed time, but we certainly appreciate it--and pledge to PBS and NPR. <br /><br />We watch The News Hour ever night. Friday night is our favorite--David Books and Mark Shields are voices of sanity even when their opinions differ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-33937127819814751832011-03-16T15:47:38.617-04:002011-03-16T15:47:38.617-04:00This post makes me want to start watching the News...This post makes me want to start watching the News Hour again. Don't know why I stopped, maybe because I just basically stopped watching news altogether. But it sure would be nice to watch a news team actually do journalism and not infotainment. <br /><br />I'm glad you still support PBS. It gets more important all the time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-88568229843974692742011-03-16T14:50:08.056-04:002011-03-16T14:50:08.056-04:00Which comes first?

I agree wholeheartedly about their tag lines being deceptive. American Experience is one of my favs, along with Antiques Roadshow. I do love Pete Seeger so very, very much!Carolina Lintheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16335905555994442416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-19522884378472963342011-03-16T12:45:34.794-04:002011-03-16T12:45:34.794-04:00This would bother me terribly....glad you are ok w...This would bother me terribly....glad you are ok with it. Well, at least a little ok with it.<br />Where would we be without PBS??? I grew up on Sesame street, as well as my daughters.

I heard them sing and Mort Sahl talk at Northrop Auditorium on the U of M campus in 1962, My favorite Festival show is that retrospect of John Denvers music. For that I will put up with interminable begging.... and even one little white lie. :)troutbirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087811292280881959noreply@blogger.com
