hello
hi
hi my name is Leslie
hi i'm Jennifer
and where are you from
Pennsylvania
oh nice i'm from Dallas Texas
oh really
yeah so
oh that's neat
well did you understand what this was for you know what it was for what we
um television shows sure that sounds good
yeah
okay i i don't watch too many but we can try it are you ready to start okay just a minute
okay
sure am
okay i guess we're recording now
yeah okay
what are your favorite television shows
well i don't really watch too many TV shows other than uh occasionally i'll i'll turn on Donahue because it comes on in the morning when i seem to be getting ready around here
oh really
and uh so if if there's no one else around you know it's just me and i have a chance to listen to something i'll turn that on but uh just for the for the conversation factor i think
but and then i think i enjoy when i catch it i don't even know what night it's on but Designing Women sometimes
oh i love that show yes that is great
yeah do you
yeah it's fun and then there's a new one that started out that i've caught occasionally a couple of times called Good and Evil i think
oh i heard they just canceled that i read in today's paper they just canceled that show
oh really
it is a real different one it's um it's it's different i guess i watch it more out of the uniqueness of it and the time that it comes on more than the fact that i have to see it but
have you seen the show it's it's new this year called Home Front
no i haven't watched that
oh it's it's really good it's um
i think it's on like Tuesday nights from ten to eleven and it's set in post World War Two times
uh-huh
and it's about how the servicemen come home and readjust to civilian life here and the changes everyone's going through it's really interesting
oh yeah
it's kind of like a soap a nighttime soap opera type thing
sounds neat
it is it's a good it's really well written
is that on what channel what station
um i don't even know to tell you the truth
oh okay
what other shows do you like
um i prefer Oprah Winfrey to Donahue
oh yeah
well she comes on later and i usually have kids around so i don't end end up watching that one is the only problem i have with it i guess
oh
oh
i did watch soap operas but i work full-time now and can't catch those anymore
yeah
except when i'm home sick and now when i watch them i think why did i ever watch those
that's right yeah
they're stupid
so when i did watch them i was addicted to them every day
uh-huh
but not anymore
that can happen
so do you know of any other shows in the evening or something that you enjoy
oh um tonight i'm looking forward to seeing Golden Girls
oh that's always fun
yes i like that show
yeah
and if i can stay up late enough i like to catch Saturday Night Live every now and then
oh uh-huh
and right now we're watching a Penn State football game because that's where we live
oh yeah
so
uh-huh
it's exciting we're winning so that's really exciting
yeah
well i think
i also course like to catch the news during the evening hours but uh it's a little tough because that's when i'm usually making dinner and the kids are wanting to talk all at the same time so usually i don't get a whole lot of news watching in
um-hum
yes we watch CNN in the morning while we're getting ready
uh-huh
for the day and eating breakfast
we'll catch our news that way
watch the weather channel so that we know what the weather's going to be like
yeah yeah
so what have you seen interesting on Oprah Winfrey lately
lately i haven't been catching it because of my work schedule um
um-hum
i can't remember the last time i saw it it's been a while
yeah
well i don't know if we've talked our full three minutes or not
i don't know sometimes they come on and and say
oh that's right
well today on CNN they were talking about
something like this about um
learning to recognize voices and words and stuff and the research that's going on which is kind of what we're doing helping them get a database for words
hm
yeah
it's really interesting
it is interesting
do you work for Texas Instruments
so uh
no no just uh doing this as a fund-raiser for our church
oh that's nice
yeah so it kind of makes it easy you know to do a little something for it
sure because we uh we've talked to a lot of people from Texas it seems so we thought well maybe they work from for Dallas
