Another TV long gone

Just like clockwork: for the fifth (or so) time, a television Steve rented from the local rental agency is going back this weekend because of lack of funds. Thank goodness we don't anchor such items to the floor, or there'd be no floor left thanks to the holes left behind.

But don't worry! I'm sure that come springtime, in this very space (book it), we will hear of another television being ordered to replace that small TV that replaces every rented TV he's had. And you could see it coming as early as today, the same day he announced this TV is going back: he wants cable television back. Reasoning: the shows on over-the-air television "stink". Hey, don't they all?

Though my photo references are not complete as far as capturing televisions we've had, here are two. And you can guess that the others in-between were of various sizes and shapes. I've heard of varying room layouts every once in awhile to avoid visual boredom, but this has become a comedy of sorts. Blink, and you never know what might be standing against that wall next.
