In our kitchen, before he had to go do his homework, the Neighbor Child said to my brother:
"You know whats wierd about your house? You don't have a t.v."
my brother "Yes, we do. Its just not out here."
"Where is it?"
"In my parent's room."
"Do you ever watch it?"
"Yes. We did today. We watched about gravity and airplaines." [it was a movie. N.]
"I have a Playstation 2 and t.v. in my room."
"Do you wanna play cards?"

Its amazing how disconcerted some people are by the lack of a prominently placed television. Of course, children are more likely to tell you they think something about your home is strange.
