Tv Remote Control

The dude who invented the remote control certainly was a genius!

   I can surf the TV from the comfort of my Lazy-Boy - 'tis so ingenious!

      But even with this technological marvel I still have a complaint.

         Why is it that the illusive remote is usually where I ain't?

Amen! Hubby says when I fall asleep on the couch that I have a death grip on the silly thing... And if he turns it off... I turn it back on! Really! LOL
