Was wondering if there were programs you watching on TV that gives you a chance to say "I did'nt know that" and find your new ways to expand your knowledge.


For me its the History Channel & The Aprentience.


The History channel because not a week goes by I find myselt rooted to the TV seeing how something happened or was created.

The Aprentience teaches me how to manage people and why so many fail to offer good leadership skills, and how form good team relationships.


You?

What I learn about myself is I don't like much TV, other than The Simpsons and South Park.

I rediscovered NOVA last week. Gotta love public broadcasting.

Sadly, I don't get those 600 channels that you all get. I'm stuck here with 7 channels. PBS is 2 of them.

I really enjoy that "Unwrapped" show on the Food Network. It shows how alot of common processed foods are made. The cheese curls one was really kinda neat.

I also like shows like "Crossing Jordan" where they are doing stuff with forensic science. It really interests me.
