I have a TV. PJ proved that the third time was the charm, and hauled it in a few minutes ago.

Wow. It's HUGE.

My old, very old TV, hereinafter refered to as "The Postage Stamp" has a 9" screen. (Yes, that's on the diagonal.) This one is a full 31". No more squinting to make out captions, huzzah!

I'll probably spend half the evening getting it hooked up, but then, woohoo! It's going to be awesome.


(It was also good for spurring a small cleaning frenzy. The kitchen-dining room had definitely backslid.)

It's fabulous! I can sit back against a pile of pillows and still see the screen, as opposed to the postage stamp, where I had to sit on the edge of the bed three feet away and still squint. The sound is good, a vast improvement over the 'stamps tinny little speakers, and when I put it on 'mute' during the commercials, there's no high-pitched hum.

Invest money?! What a bizarre thought. Except for a black and white portable, circa 1982, I've never paid for a TV. They were all given to me. I remember at one time, I had two TVs in my bedroom; I didn't have cable at the time, and one of them tuned in channel 6, the other got channel 9. And that was all!
