Damn I must be out of it. No TV No cellphone No garage No dishwasher You're a rarity these days. *I recall saying some years back that I'd never get a cellphone. Now I have one, and saved my ass a year ago, when my truck died out in the middle of nowhere and it was 20 below zero. I was 15 miles from home. I was able to call the police, who came and let me sit in their warm squad car, while I called and woke up a friend to come and take me home. The sheriff would have taken me home, but I lived in another county, and they cant leave their county. But he would have taken me to the station if I had not found a ride, he said. And I cant imagine not having a TV. I only have an antenna, but I like watching that Me-TV (oldies channel). I would not pay for the crap they have on pay tv. Most programming these days is ****. No dishwasher here either. Never seen the need for one. I use paper plates most of the time. I figure it's cheaper to buy them, than pay to heat dish water and use soap and all of that... Of course I still have to wash pots and pans..... My garage is a place to store junk. No room for a car But I do have 30+ spare computers in my workshop and one spare coffee maker in my attic. Plus every computer in my house is on an industrial grade UPS Why do you need so many computers? I have 4 that work, and about 6 more for parts.... Until recently, I only used my Win98 desktop, and my XP laptop at WIFI spots, but now Ive been working with that XP desktop which I repaired. |
