This morning as I awoke to my radio alarm, I heard Steven Inskeep (NPR) tell the world that DirectTV now offers a TV channel for dogs. So now when Fido is left home alone all day the TV can stay on (kilowatts!) entertaining him.
Of course, that channel requires not only that you subscribe to DirectTV (at least $40/ mo) but that you also subscribe to that channel for an extra fee (whattaya think, $9.99 at least). And, of course, that you have at least one dog (love my dogs, but they ain't cheap).
Seriously??!
