If Medium Tex were around here, I’d point him to this excellent piece on Nick Offerman.

Before we bought this place, I told (Megan Mullally) I wanted to build her a craftsman lodge and said, “I’ll split firewood and bring home fresh game.” She said, “No thanks, buddy.”

What Size TV Do You Guys Have?

Post by Smith1776 »

I just ordered an 85" TCL from Best Buy during this recent sale. Looks like I picked up one of the last ones in my area before they sold out.

43”. Wife said anything bigger would ruin the look of the room, and I tend to agree.

17 Years!!!! My kind of electronics item! I expect them to go forever and always disappointed when they do not.

A few years ago a friend gave me a 55" that was around 15 years old. Good enough for me since about the only time it is on is when I'm exercising in the room.

Otherwise, my main TV is a 32" which is an arm's length away as I sit here typing this.
