“Televisions are about the only electronic item that I still need to see work in person.”

Same here, and I did purchase a Sony Bravia from Best Buy as well as an iTouch.

My Best Buy usually has lot of open parking spaces in front of it, but it managed to reserve a parking spot for “Fuel Efficient” green cars. Have never seen a reserved spot like that before. What’s up with that?

I'd park my 12MPG F-150 in the spot just as a way of telling those watermelons to go eff themselves. And it's not even green, it's white. Course I could only do that if I'd lower my standards enough to shop there.

Hmm, I guess if there WERE a good store or restaurant next door I guess I could still park the truck there to flip them the bird without actually having to endure shopping there.

When the best price on an HDTV was still around $500, I bought two for $250 over the net ~ for the both ~ without trying them out ahead of time.

Lo and behold they both worked.

I tried to buy more of them.

The Best Buy near me did the same for fuel efficient cars and also had spots for "Parents with Chidren." Anytime I ever went by there, the spots for "Parents with Chidren" were inevitably taken up by single folks or teenage drivers.

And why not, those aren't legal signs and you can't get a ticket for parking in them if you're not driving a "green car" or don't have kids, so I park my Ford F-250 FX-4 Quad-Cab Diesel in the "Green car" spots.

Yep, it pisses the 'greenie weenies' off which is just how I like it.
