Remotes

They are all over the house. They are everywhere. They seem attached to everything.

Everywhere I go I see them. Piles of them on tables and sofas. They are almost as bad as cell phones.

They cause panic when they don't work.

But what are all these remotes for?

To make OUR lives easier. Turn it on, change it, fine tune it, turn it off. So easy, if it is the right one.

Did we always have these electronic creatures in our lives? NO!!

Before we used to get our duff off the couch and walk two step to turn a nob or flip a switch, then stand there until we decided to stay on one of the three channels before turning around and sitting our big fat butt back on the couch.

And, of course, we would have to get back up to adjust the rabbit ears.
