Six year old AV geeks. *sigh*

So now he's watching Spongebob Squarepants in HD while I make dinner. Why on earth there needs to be an HD version of a talking sponge, I have no fucking idea. I guess that's why cable costs so damn much.

3. Put the review
down in the Tofu Ghetto so everyone will see it.

This is potentially an earth-shattering discovery.

6. We have melting! Repeat: We have melting!
Not of microscopic shreds, not under the broiler, big chunks of cheese melting at realistic oven temperatures. Under the other pizza toppings, even.

:wow:

13. Ooh - I am jealous!
Our tv is about half that size and I think we paid almost twice as much. I'll take you shopping with me next time we have a big purchase to make!

12. He is the world's best kid.
And I'm not just saying that 'cause he's my kid.

I'm saying that 'cause he's got a mohawk and he keeps stealing my guitar. :D
