Opal you did wrong by Earl you deserve to sleep on the couch. Men treasure remotes for TV. Remotes you buy at places like Walmart and Best Buy do not have speed control and are very expensive from the manufacture. I have never done what Opal did but our remote actually quite on us even with fresh batteries.
I still like Pickles strips.
LOL! This was like the time my dad’s VCR broke for the last time. He carried it into the next room like it was a wounded animal. A sad day at our house (except for my mom, who was happy to get rid of another piece of ‘junk’!)
BC13: I had to laugh out loud at your “silicon heaven”. It put such delicious visions in my head of a place where old equipment lives on and on….. Elysian fields of old VCR’s and Sony BetaMax.

That line was taken from an episode of a British Sci-Fi/ Comedy called Red Dwarf. When it was explained to Kryton ( a mechanoid) that there was no such think as Silicon Heaven, he replied, “But where do all the calculators go?”
True, and my husband is one of them. Yesterday he left the bottom half of his food container at work and I ragged on him a bit about it. Today I told him to be sure and bring home all of the food containers from his dinner. He said I wasn’t gonna let up about it. Then it occurred to me I could replace it by buying another one at the Dollarama.

No she shouldn’t have to sleep on the couch since she is sorry, and she offered to buy him a new one. That should suffice.

Earl, there’s no such thing as silicon heaven. Toasters, remotes etc, just die.

Who needs WikiPedia when you’ve got Joe D?
No silicon heaven - but there’s a carbon heaven? Sure…
Macush - I’m sure many’s the man who has messed up, apologized profoundly, and promised to make reparations, yet STILL ended up in the dog-house!
