In the average lifetime, Americans spend an average of two weeks kissing. Sweet, until you consider that they will spend an average of 9 years watching television.

Well, that puts American life into perspective, doesn't it? Guess we're just giving lip service to the concept of love.
Oh good lord - don't read my blog post today...ever. I am exalting 80s movies but while I wrote it I did wonder how much of my life I 'wasted' watching them.
Good God that is awful. Seriously, this is exactly why I do not own a tv, nor do I watch anything but movies at my friend's house. NINE WHOLE YEARS? Just think of all the other things you could have done in that time. Wow.
What about the times you are kissing AND watching tv? Anyone remember being a teenager? I did that all the time! Going to spend a little of my two weeks on that note! (wink)

I'm all for a good TV show, but come on...I'd MUCH rather be kissing!

I'm with the previous comment, you could kiss while watching T.V.
I wonder if you get partial credit for watching people kiss on TV?

I love all of the Think Different posters, they are so classic.
