Good morning, friends. 🌺🌺🌺

19 December 2024

Once upon a time in the olden days I had a portable television that I purchased used because I could not afford a new one. This television had a 14-inch screen and rabbit ears on top of the set. Now I realize that people born in the 21st Century may not know what rabbit ears are, so I will attempt a description: rabbit ears were a sort of indoor antenna made two extendable rods that looked rather like the feelers on an insect - bet that cleared it up. While the TV worked okay it had one minor defect, there was no knob to turn the channel; so, I improvised with pliers. Okay, I should explain what a knob was on a TV, but I'm out of characters.

"Whatever people thought the first time they held a portable phone the size of a shoe in their hands, it was nothing like where we are now, accustomed to having all knowledge at our fingertips". - Nancy Gibbs

We had something similar. A small portable TV where we could watch Star Trek (the old series with Captn James T. Kirk 🖖😁) at Saturday evening. At the same time on the other program they showed sports, mainly soccer. That's the reason why our family TV was blocked by our dad, every Saturday! 🥴
