the horror of HT magazines

64.157.182.41

oh my, that's what got me started...was in the bookstore with a $50 gift card and had a few bucks left over, so I pulled a few HT magazines out of the rack...and that's what got me started on this plasma screen thing

i had no idea how big they'd gotten and how far the prices had dropped

but the wife caught me reading it (in the bathroom...usually i keep them hid under the matress until she goes to work), and gave me a definite "NO!"

made me feel like a dog that shit on the carpet

so to show her who wears the pants in the family i went right out the next day and bought the Bosch diswasher and the Kitchen Aid range and an exhaust hood (vented to the outside)

you know what...the new technology in kitchen appliances is simply awesome!

installed the stuff myself (i'll never do THAT again!)

now my patio is full of "used" kitchen appliances (waiting for my son-in-law to arrive with a borrowed pick-up)

the refrigerator is next

the house is so quiet i can hear the "chopper" on my 27" proscan TV

all i have to do is convince the wife that that TV noise is "unacceptable" (she can't hear noise, but can detect conversations clear across a crowded restaurant with ease...occupational skill, like being able to read papers on a desk upside-down)

I'm still holding out for the plasma (no cooling fan--it's quiet as a tomb), but it looks like I'll have to buy new cabinets and granite countertops for the kitchen first...and install a cherry floor in the master bedroom...

any day now

stay away from the magazine rack...especially the kitchen remodeling section
