Who uses what for good television these days ?

Cable ? Roku ? Firestick ?


Cable is outta control on prices these days.

We're running a Firestick.
I'm not techy so it's a pain switching back and forth from the limited cable we have.
Plenty of movies though!
Once in a while a good one.
I trend towards old ones for personal choices.

Just going through the pocket change and found a 35 wheatie!
Best find lately as weather and work have been interfering with coil time!
Most of us Southern boys don’t do too well in the cold, and it’s been cooooold here lately.

Firestick with a mix of Netflix, Hulu, and HBO MAX some of the free ones too. Ends up being a lot cheaper in the end

How much a month is this costing ?

I don't remember but when my brother did the math with all for my father it was still cheaper than say Direct TV and you have more control over what you want to watch.

@ARC
Apparently after reading the regs on shells they have decided that 20 is now the limit on recreational shelling.....thats 20 live organisms/shells. They have increased the limit by 5 more from last season. Now when you read it right.....thats a per person limit....not a total boat limit !! That means if i have five people on the boat that technically i could have 100 shells a day !!

So I can only have 5 of any one species at a time. I have poured over every law every year in order to formulate a plan that allows the most profitability for the type of fishing i am planning. What may sound like a lot to one person, may not be anywhere near what the reality of population numbers really are. So I was wondering if anyone had read all the way through the regulations to see what the limits were.....no one even made one Comment. So this is the same attitude i experience from many people. Most people wont read through these regulations because they dont dive for shells !! They will say something like this. Your allowed 15 shells ?? Thats insane and way to many. Those laws sound ludicrous!! And the reality is im actually allowed 20....five more than previous years. Now why do you think that is ?? Because the actual situation under the water is different from the assumptions made by people who dont get under the water enough to know. If i took a scientist out to do number counts.....they would tell you there extinct and they could find none. Its because they are pencil pushers with no practical experience actually finding them in the wild. So they charter people with experience collecting them, and know the telltale signs of snail activity. Because of an inclusive government the scientist are not allowed to hire the best shell divers to take them out and take population numbers. They have a lottery system so its fair to all. Except the environment. If the scientist pick a person with little to no experience harvesting shells.....well then there numbers are skewed.....since the person they hired to track wildlife have little to no experience and cant put the scientist on any shells they have to assume they are threatened.....the truth is the person you hired to take you out for your critical research sucks, and cant even find them because they rarley if ever do it. Then they take out us and we find hundreds in several hours. Think about this.....if the person you hire sucks at what they do, or dont care except about the gov. Check well then your science is no better.

I like your post & agree with it. I did read your regulations and saw where you could only keep 5 of any one type. Earlier you said that you were keeping 15. Not sure if I have it all correct in my feeble noggin. I have never dived (bad ears) but having fished offshore my entire life know it is a very physical job. I applaud your life choice & can only assume and yet by your comments, deduce that you are a conservative steward of your underwater environment.

That would depend, on the definition of "good television". The best television, to me, is *FREE* television.
