* I will never forget the wonderful evening my wife and I spent at home. We had a dinner at home and did the dishes together and we even sang a couple of songs together, when we tired of that, we walked in the moonlight hand in hand. It was so wonderful I longed for more evenings like that, but it was not to be because early the next morning there was a knock on the door and in came a man to change everything… The cable repairman.
* Selling consumer electronics brings in a lot of people who know only what they have seen on TV. I was demonstrating a back seat TV to go into a van. I showed the family that it would play DVD’s and even get local TV stations. The husband asked, “Does it get cable stations?”
* My mother and I returned to my parents house late one evening to find my father, my college-age brother, Stephen, and my 10-year-old sister fast asleep. Mom had forgotten her house keys, so we knocked loudly, first at the back door, then at the front door and in minutes at the side door. We yelled my father’s name over and over, with no answer. Honking the car horn aroused the neighbors, but no one at our house. Finally, we called the home land line waking Stephen. When we got back, he let us in. Dad was in bed, snoring with the television on. Mom quickly switched it off. Dad woke right up, “Don’t turn thing off”, he said. “I’m watching it.”
