It always happens!
We're getting ready to head to Detroit for the weekend. I have been given the task of researching new televisions for my in-laws as their current one is going down the crapper. I thought: "Great! I'll just check my Consumer Reports and be set." Sounds simple enough doesn't it? I go check my archives (read cardboard box in the basement). Let's see, I need to find the March 2004 issue. Here's August ... July ... June ... May ... April ... February .... FEBRUARY!!! WHERE'S MARCH!!! I NEED MARCH!!!!
I still haven't found it yet, but I know how to conduct some quickie online research so I got my recommendations finished, but that just annoys me. The one frickin issue I need and I can't find it. I know it's here somewhere ... somewhere in this god awful disaster area that is our house, hiding in a crevasse, mocking me, is that March 2004 issue.
Shh! Here that snickering? MARCH ISSUE ... I SHALL FIND THEE AND I SHALL USE THY RATINGS AGAINST THY WILL!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Dude. You have a box of Consumer Reports? How very grown-up of you : ) Not just that you have, apparently, a subscription to Consumer Reports, but that you keep the back issues. I didn't know this about you, Edward! It's so...responsible of you *grin*
Well ... it's hard to live this long around an anal retentive accountant (is that redundant?) and not have something rub off.
