To the economy, that is. Following the guidance of our President, George W. Bush, I spent a portion of our economic stimulus check. I had originally planned on rolling the entire amount over into savings, and actually did do that once the money arrived. It was this past weekend that I dug into the old savings all in the name of a new TV. Now, let’s work on getting those Presidential addresses confined to just one channel instead of interrupting prime time viewing, eh?
Of course, I can justify the spending. Prior to yesterday, we had been watching a 19″ television that Liz got her sophomore year of high school. While there was nothing wrong with the TV, it wasn’t the most ideal for watching a movie or having people here to watch the game. I mean, if I did that sort of thing.
Some may call it wasteful; I call it patriotic. A contribution to revive our slow economy. And besides that, with the new crisp high-definition picture, it’s easier to imagine actually seeing the pixelated portions on The Real World Hollywood.
God Bless America!
