AARRGGHH!

“The beat goes on.” So, these days, does … “the glow.” All homes-habitats these days are “aglow”—24/7. Every damn device known to mankind (mousekind?) including sonic mouse fender-offers has a glowing light of some sort. Yesterday I bought a $29.95 Cuisinart toaster. (I bought it solely for the color—cherry red!) Upon plugging it in I discovered … MORE GLOW. The “degree of toasting” indicator—1 to 9—has a “60/60/24/7” lit up number.

For gawd’s sake …

(The next two Posts are oldies—about 10 days old—that just turned up on my Desktop …)
