I mentioned before that I was in an ongoing contest to win a 42″ plasma TV. The contest ran for 3 weeks with each week being a round. Each round winner wins an iPod, unless he or she goes on to win the grand prize. At this point last week I learned that I had won an iPod by winning the 2nd round. That put me near the lead for the whole contest. This morning I found that I had also won the 3rd round. Unfortunately I still lost the entire contest by the slimmest of margins. So no new plasma TV for me.
So not winning a plasma TV sucks, because I was so close.
Oh well, I have a nice 31″ TV that does just fine.
And as of 11 AM this morning I have a 31″ TV that has dysfunctioning audio. It plays nothing but static. That hurts.
Fortunately I’ve worked around the problem by cleverly using my VCR. But still, what timing!
