Last night i killed our t.v. Electronics don't get along well with me. I have no idea what i did, darn it,i'm just a kid!! =P I was just trying to hook up a vcr, but i didn't get very far. Then the cable went out, & i gave an ungodly shout!! **** I spent 2 hours hooking & unhooking cables and wires, i got out screw drivers,hamer,& pliers. It blinked & fuzzed,no picture would show. My irritation continued to grow. I tried every combination & intricate variations, but it still didn't work, there must be a quirk!! But we'll never know,that t.v. met it's demise in the form of a mad girl with blazing green eyes!! The aggravation was so great,i could not stand, so towards the t.v. i thrust out my hand!! It crashed to the floor,it shattered, all the peices scattered. Boy am i in trouble now!! ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ I'm feeling especially uninspired....so i wrote an ode to my t.v. YES!! i'm nuts!! Actually last night i DID manage to tear up our t.v......don't ask me how. But i didn't actually hit it.....although i certainly felt like it. And it didn't shatter.....i'm just dramatizing it...LOL!! And there she weaves by night and day, a magic web of colours gay.~Tennyson |

A smashing little story in rhyme Swampy...Nothing wrong with using a little poetic licence  May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out. Irish proverb. |

Many times I've felt the frustration of being outdone by modern technology--so I know where you are coming from--I am glad you can see the humor in it as well. Good poem, David "GOD GIVES- but man must open his hand." (German Proverb) |

Ah...problems with the science of man. Isn't it ironic how people invent such technology to make our lives easier and usually it ends up complicating our lives more?!?! *sigh*   ~~Jamie [This message has been edited by Wikket (edited 05-07-2000).] |

TOO CUTE! Hey, sometimes televisions can be too incredibly frustrating! LOL! It's OK to have absolutly NO inspiration. I know how it feels! Good luck finding some inspiration! Life defines no more than what it is you ask for. April 20, 2000 Alicia A. Renzelman |

 I do believe my T.V. is about to meet the same demise.. *lol* Wonderful and delightful.  I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell. |

LOL...thanks you Alicia,Angel,and dreamer!! Alicia!! i have found some inspiration...i've decided to challenge myself by writing a mad poem about the nosy neighbors that live around me...LOL....this should be interesting....in the meantime most of my new poems are going to the dark passions forum...i seem to be stuck in a morbid little rut. Lost Dreamer- actually i had rented a movie i really wanted to watch and then the tv got "smashed" and had to take the movie back without ever watching it...lol...the trials of life with technology...i think i'll write a book about it...HEEHEE... Thanks again all =] swampfaerie And there she weaves by night and day, a magic web of colours gay.~Tennyson |

Laughed at the poem, I found it sooo hillarious, by the way, the A cable to the A jack, the B cable to the B jack, criss cross them only Tuesdays of the third week in each month unless of course there is a full moon and you ate chicken that night, in that case you'll have to pat your head rapidly and blink your eyes in an alternating pattern. *lol* Did you invent the "Kill you TV" slogan by chance? |
