mousmeI almost forgot! My parents got a new television. It has a flat screen and a DVD player, and you can ACTUALLY SEE THE COLOURS! Wheee!
Apparently the crisis came about when my parents tried to watch "Batman" as it was running on Space the other night. The scene went something like this.
My Mother: *stares intently at screen*
My Father: *comes into the room* "What are you watching?"
My Mother: "This movie about a man who fights crime with all these incredible gadgets!"
My Father: "What's it called?"
My Mother: "I don't know. It's just on. But he has this car! It's fabulous! You should watch. You'd enjoy it. It's just like a comic book!"
Luckily, my father eventually recognizes the Batman logo, or something, and clues into what she's watching. He sits down to watch.
My Father: "So what part are we looking at now?"
My Mother: *squints at the indistinguishable grey forms on the screen* "I think that's the city..."
Both: "..."
My Father: "That's it. We're getting a new television."
So, bonus for me, because I'm the one who watches it most when I go there. :)
