anachronaut: Wo befalls me, mine remote control is mislain! Whither has it gone? Wife, what news of the remote controller?! We must make haste as in but three and twenty minutes I must watch my programmes in the telechamber! O joy of joys, at last it appears! It lay betwixt the cushions of the couching seat! No longer must I endure the horror of two and one half men's situational comedies!
