you know...

one of the things that suck about the advance of technology is that you can't put the little TV on top of the big TV when the big TV craps out.

Right?

And you can't smack 'em on the side when the picture craps out, because they don't have sides.

I know!! And damn, that smacking was so satisfying.

There's no rabbit ears to wrap tin foil around.

Also very damn annoying. Back then, you could do stuff and see a result!!

Ah, the good old days when you could stack things. :P

Exactly!! Kids these days--they don't know from stacking TVs, stacking records, stacking one vcr with another to recorded from each other...

Back in the old days, there was always a spot at the front door where you could put your cane. Now I'm reduced to carrying everywhere--but you never know when you'll need it to chase those pesky damn kid off the front lawn.

Everyone should witness the peculiarity of a working really sitting atop a broken one. My grandparents had a a working TV sitting on their old huge wooden console that had a record player built in. I never questioned it and it was good and all was right with the world but now it's madness with these slim TVs!

The whole world is madness, miss dawnybee! I am a stranger in a strange land...thank goodness porn is always easily understandable!

well...mostly.

I was considering getting myself a little countertop b&w, one of those portable babies like I had back in, oh, 1981. Was I ever surprised when someone told me you can't find those at all anymore. What the hell? I'll go sit out on the stoop and whittle for entertainment.

LOL!!! Right??? I went out to buy a new TV one day and found out that the one i wanted could only be found at the Goodwill...here, make some room, I got some whittlin' to do, myself. Imma carve me a goldurn TV--a *real* TV....
