Dave contemplates
better use for the T.V.
- Time Vaporizer.

Hey if you are going to watch TV enjoy it and get something out of your time, But don't le tit vaporize your lifetime.  Don't be a part of the statistic of watching an average  of 4 meaningless hours daily.

Honestly, we can sit in front of the TV for two hours and take anything that comes our way.  Whether it be good or bad.  The question is, when was the last time have we dug into the Bible for two hours?  It’s the focus that is the difference.

This can be an indicator in our lives that we may need to reexamine our priorities.  Ultimately, the time you spend on anything is between you and God, but the fact remains that men and women who have been close with God, who have been used by God, in the Bible, have been true students of God’s word.  – Dave Davidson

For every hour, every
 minute, every second you
 waste watching TV is an
 hour, a minute and second
 you could be building on
your dream.  Dave Davidson

I challenged my Dad to cut down his TV viewing in half,
so he put a piece of cardboard over half his TV. Dave Davidson
