LOL I know Epona! You get so used to doing the same thing everyday. Having total "access" if you will. PC to play games, PC to get on the Net, TV for cheap extra entertainment, stereo for musical entertainment, man are we spoiled or what?
In the past month I have bought a new VCR for $80 cause mine went dead, then a week later bought NWNs for $55, didn't work so I had to get a new video card... add $100... then my CD player on my stereo went flippo, so had to get a new one, that was $70 (couldn't afford at the time a nice one, so just got the basics, 5-CD player), then my power supply on my PC pops, have to get that replaced, another $40.
There are people out there in other countries starving, would give anything for a sandwich, and here I whine and complain cause I can't play a PC game, or can't get on the Net to chat with people, or can't record crap on TV with a VCR, or can't listen to CDs with my set of 4-foot speakers. Hey I'm not rich in the least, but damn, I'm so much better off than so many, am spoiled is what it is. Electronics has taken over my life, my priorities it seems.. is that a good thing or a bad thing? Seems like a good debate topic I think.
