June: Mother, I'm glad you and dad are enjoying the new 70-inch, hi-def TV we gave you for Christmas... Sign: Golden Years Retirement Village June: But you don't have to watch everything on that tiny box in the upper corner of the cable guide! Grandmother: You mean that's not how the screen is always supposed to look? Norman: No! Where's your remote? Grandfather: We don't know how to work it! Ralph: I love Gramma and Grandad, but sometimes I wonder how they ever made it into their eighties.

I think I’d watch “Eyewitless News” over “Church Basketball”, but I do think that “College Dodgeball” might be worth checking out.

Forget the f——— TV and get out and about. That’s the problem. And some people are terrible techies at any age. Granted, a cell phone is something one should try and master. I feel that people are pretty much the same way their whole lives.

ChessPirate: Our TV has the video of the current program in the upper left corner when viewing the schedule.
