Thread: My First Casualty Of War

  1. #1
    Last night I had a genuine casualty of war (this is true): When I tried to switch from BBC world to CNN my TV set blew.

    I am not sure whether I should blame midget Iraqi guerilla who tried to prevent me from getting the American view of things, or the extraordinarily balanced content of CNN which might have induced my TV-set to commit suicide.

    In any case, for the time being I can draw on my reserves (TV card), but hopefully soon I will be able to launch a counter-attack on the nearest shop and hijack a widescreen TV!

    Puremind-Could be this equation applies:

    BIG SCREEN=BIG PICTURE

    What we wouldn't give for that, huh?
