Sometimes even one afternoon is too long.


I'm sure that there are worse fates, but sometimes simply trying to get through the afternoon as a one-television family can be an excruciating ordeal. It's amazing how adept Eitan is at finding the most obscure soccer matches, even without cable. And if it isn't soccer, some other sport which I never knew existed is being highlighted, and somehow he already knows its ins and outs. But Nadav, who has yet to discover that being crazy about sports is "in", wants to see a particularly boring video for the forty-seventh time. For Hila happiness is simply standing in front of the screen, blocking every body else's view and pushing whichever button seems nicest at the moment. Yes, a few "individual" televisions in the house can't hurt.
