Oh she's fully capable of getting anything she wants when she wants it and making no bones about it. It's just a really odd combination of what she's really compulsive about and what she's fascinatingly passive about. She is, in general, far more of a control freak than I am, but she does other things that leave me scratching my head and going "Huh?" Her total relinquishment of the remote is one of them. Sis, the reason why you think nothing is ever on TV... is your husband only ever leaves the TV on CNN and ESPN. There are a whole range of other channels and actual TV shows out there...
(Then again, I figure he gets payback in the form of my neice who isn't shy about the remote -- having two older brothers taught her long ago to fight for her right to the remote -- and therefore subjects them to endless hours of Hillary Duff and Lindsey Lohan. (To up the torture factor... she listens to their musical CDs as well. Oh, the horror! >:)
