Funny Stuff From Dave Barry

"Buying a TV today is complicated. It's not like in the 1950's, when I was a boy and the glaciers were receding and electricity had just been invented. Back then there was only one kind of TV, which was a refrigerator-sized mass of walnut with two knobs and a tiny screen. In fact, some of the early TV's had no screen at all: People would just sit there and stare at the walnut. That's how starved we were for entertainment."
