I get the "don't watch tv on vacation" thing. It irritates the heck out of me to keep seeing the news and where we generally stay it's always out of NYC. I could do without I think.

It's nice to have though...I'm always there during World Series, and as we don't go out much at night any longer I NEED to watch the games.

I've also been in SXM when Sandy was hitting the U.S. (strange feeling). Needed news to keep track of home.
