What Free TV? Here Ya Go...

[MasonC2K]

So I accidentally learned something about the human body today. It can function as free TV antenna. Was trying to test some old coax and had plugged one end into the TV and was going to plug the other into a real antenna. Well, the little needle part was bent so I grabbed it between 2 fingers to bend it straight. Well, to my surprise my TV suddenly had a signal. And in HD no less. So if you are really desperate for free TV, there you go.

Isn't that why people had kids back then?

Be warned, staying on that position for a movie marathon is very difficult. Try to enlist the help of kids and/or a spouse to make things easier. By the way, I am not surprised at this. Many moons ago when I was a wee little lass, there was a documentary on the electricity generated by the human body. It proved that under the right circumstances, the human body produces enough electricity to light up a 100 watt lightbulb.

That is the reason why some people, including myself, cannot interact with certain electronics. Our energy field is much broader than most, and if we get too near things like tv's, cash registers, computers and things, we make them go haywire. My own computer has a special buffer in place to allow me to use it regularly. But there are still times when it's impossible for me to use it, because I cause all kinds of problems with it. And you should see the effect I can have on a cellphone.

It sounds far fetched I know, but I've seen in person what effect I have on electronics. Been that way pretty much my whole life.

I heard that if you have one of those button pads to unlock/lock your car on your keychain, you can double the distance the keychain can find your car by placing the pointer on your head and then pressing the buttons. If I remember right, I saw it on Top Gear.

Gale, I think we need further documentation on this, lol.

i have known that for years now. like when the radio antenna touches your body and suddenly music starts playing clearly. made me think i had some type of metal in me.

Just another perk of reproduction

Like nobody remembers the Bundy family call of "Fox viewing positions everyone."?
