I never heard of a sixty-inch analogue TV! Thought they only made those somewhat outlandish sizes when TV went all digital and flatscreen. I think the biggest CRT TV I had was about maybe 24 inch? Very reliable yes for years, but one day it just died and that was my signal to move to digital (no pun intended - what pun?) since when I've had precisely two TVs, a 32-inch LG - nothing wrong with it, still working so far as I know but changed it for a bigger one, which is a 42-inch Sharp, again no problems. Neither are/were SMART TVs.

(OK, never mind that: I found it in a couple of old photos):

Is this just an excuse to post cat pics? Not complaining but you seem to have gone to some effort to find pics of a TV no one will care about and it's barely visible anyway.

[rostasi]

Well, last time I looked, I was talking with TH - who may be interested in seeing something he wasn’t familiar with.

[The Batlord]

Come on, man, you just wanted to post your adorable kitty. There's no shame in it.

[Trollheart]

I'm always up for a cute cat pic! What's his/her name?

As for the TV, yeah I see now. I think I saw something similar on maybe Hardcore Pawn or something, some kid pushing it along the street. Don't think they gave him anything for it and he was like "Aw man! I gotta push this all the way back home?" Think it was falling apart anyway.

Lily’s right here sitting with me.
I just told her she has admirers.
She didn’t have much to say.

[The Batlord]

She has floof?! You're a shameless pimp.

[rostasi]

Just like cotton.

Christmas came today
and it has her picture
(plus the two others)
on a pair of purple socks.

What a real great idea....Views/Opinions?
