Transcript:
Irving: She spends all our money on shoes!! Man: You're obviously not looking at the big picture. Cathy: HAH! Man: You need the new iPad! Huge 9.7" picture! Get yourself one of these babies and who cares about her shoes?! Cathy: WHAT?? What about US?? What's the big picture for US?! Man: For the two of you, I recommend the giant 60" HDTV with side-by-side gaming chairs! You'll never even need to speak to each other!

I firmly believe that TVs and Easy chairs are the final resting place of most marriages. …many lives as well. Sad, that.

The CPA certainly knows this couple and what makes them click. In this case, he is spot on with his suggestions. They will probably buy the items on the way home, an enjoy them together. Except the iPad. That’s Irving’s baby.

Some couples enjoy those things and still talk to each other. I know many who talk about what they are watching or the games they play. It’s up to the couple. My parents would watch TV at night, sometimes together, sometimes separately, yet not talking, yet they still had a healthy marriage. My grandparents would do their own thing at night without electronics (reading the newspaper, crocheting). I agree with O-Kay in that these objects have nothing to do with the marriages. It’s how the people in the marriage act that makes the difference.
Hello Cathy friends! Happy Thursday! Have a great day, all!

I wonder if the CPA’s brother or cousin owns the closest electronics store!
Friday eve again. They sure come quickly these days. We are in yet another total lockdown (but not totally as any store that sells food or construction materials is still open – oh, and any health related store or service as well) . Fortunately does not affect me much as the only time I go out is for my chiro and massage appointments and to the post office to pick up the mail.
I hope you are enjoying your day today.

If the CPA’s answer to everything for Irving is electronics…why shouldn’t Cathy just go buy some more boots.
