omg. i just forwarded that spitzerface emoticon to all my friends. priceless!
regarding tv practice--well, about the only thing i can do while practicing drums is chew gum. i need to focus, even if it's just doing endurance or strength stuff. i used to do single strokes while watching cnn, and found that i wasn't getting much out of either pursuit. i agree that it's more productive to gain something by just staying focused on one task.
i am like that with the purely physical stuff, too. i noticed everyone at the gym is either glued to the tv or tethered to their ipods. i need to hear and feel and see myself running to feel like i've made some inroads. i like to connect to what the physical activity is. i like to be conscious of what my body is doing in space.
but if chillin' in front of the tube works for you and helps you decompress, that's cool.
oh and kohei--the tv in the cab thing. i literally gasped when i saw one.
