for as the upgrade to a Vizio 42" should have read "for us the upgrade. . . "

There is a usual stepping down of old equipment, and an old one is moved out. There is a Magnavox in my bedroom that I watch maybe once a month that has only a coaxial imput, no plugs for video playing equipment, and it will go out the door this weekend. My son has a huge television for his video games, an old CRT from my next door neighbor. I don't know if he'll take that to school - it is so big, and takes up so much space, I don't know if he'll want it for his games. I'll let him tell me what he wants to do before I discard any, I guess.

I really need to clear a lot of stuff out of here. I've resisted suggesting that MOM join the de-clutter threads - she could overwhelm the gang with all of the descriptions of things she is tripping over around here. But who knows if she could let go of them. Like that collection of copper tea kettles. Does she really need 15 of them? She should have never done all of that garage sale shopping a few years ago.
