Leisure time is Decreasing

According to a Harris Poll, our leisure time dropped 20% from 2007 to 2008. And I thought it was just me. It went from 20 hours a week to an all-time low of 16 hours per week. That is really sad. In 1973 it was 26 hours a week. That can only mean we are all spending way too much time working! It's gotta stop. We are going to work ourselves to death.

The Top 5 leisure time activities in 2008 were:
Reading 30%
TV watching 24%
Spending time with Family 17%
Exercise 8%
Fishing 7%

I would like to read more but I would have to say TV and the family are my big 2. Exercise - WTF is that!!
