we have HBO and other movie channels, but more often we just watch videos in the evening: One US film or drama, and then a Korean drama (with subtitles).

.and alas her family's home in Fairfax is now deteriorating......if you know any millionaires who want to preserve historical homes, maybe they can restore her house. I mean, if Ted Turner could buy local ranches to keep buffalo on, maybe he could invest a bit into getting her family home restored.
