Well, we did it. After months of my spouse drooling over big flat screen TVs in Walmart we finally bought one and brought it home.
Each visit to Lawton for the past six months has involved him going to the electronics department to compare/drool/check out/contemplatethe purchase of a bigger TV. For months he has been attracted to/lusted after a Polaroid LCD TV.
The long awaited day had arrived. We were ready to make a purchase. We had checked out TVs at most of the TV selling stores in town and his mind was made up. Yup, that's the one he wanted. Never mind that it was pouring down rain....he was not going home without his big prize!
Guess what...just because the TV had been on display for six months did not mean that the store at any time had ever had an actual Polaroid TV in stock.Oh, my gosh...this was too cruel. Now we had to go thru the whole process. No way..." just buy the one next to it...it'll be okay." I said to my spouse of 20 years. Him being a man and way different from me, said. "Ok, we'll take the Phillips....and the glass table to set it on".(never mind that we are in a Jeep Cherokee filled with car seats and Grandma junk and it's RAINING.
This is the scene at our house when we get home with our prize.
Happy Man with TV!!!!!!!

Oh, my gosh. You've got to get Dish now with the HD channels. You will never see your guy off the couch again. Hee hee.
Damn you, and your younger brother too. Damn both your big tv havin' selves.... The light in my projection tv is now the same lumens as a hurricane lamp that is low on oil.... all shows are now evidently being filmed at night.
