Oh the Horror - my TV died today!

8.25.10 The day the earth stood still. Today my Zenith 12" color TV died. (my only TV) i guess it was natural causes? The poor thing was from the last century. I can't get a CSI team here to investigate, but the best authorities contacted guess it was at least 12 years old. My best guess is i wont be able to find an identical model. (a replacement sized to fit the hole in my cabinet) They don't make CRT monitors anymore. (big ugly cheap boxes of plastic and glass that show TV) So i'll report another day about how this works out. (for now i'm not able to keep up with the news, Magnum P.I., Hawai Five-O, or any of the great drama's available.... oh the Horror!)

I should have known it was coming. Everything on the boat has been fine now for a week. It seems that if you aren't working on a 'boat project' then something on the boat will self destruct, or commit suicide to make work for you. It's not easy being a Pirate!

Now for those who asked - I dont still have the Mullet. i got a haircut yesterday. So i have a 'long hair styled look.' What you ask is the difference? About $20. that and an imagination. I'm still growing it. When i get tired of it i'll cut it all off again. But for now i'm still working on a Pony Tail.

That's all i have to report for this week.
