Average home has more TVs than people

Average home has more TVs than people - Yahoo! News (AP)

Curious.

OTOH, we have three people in our household now, and, um, three TVs...

Part of it is that as long as a TV still works, why not keep it if there's room for it? I'm sure I'm not alone in that practice.

Says something sad somehow about the average American family, too, if you think about it...

An even more amazing fact I read in my paper this morning was that people are watching more TV than ever. How?! People work longer hours, are so busy, there's cellphones, iPods, the Internet, popular games, and on and on... Most of that so-called TV-watching must be the TV just being on, maybe actually watched, maybe not?
