A few hours ago.   My 5 year old little girl:   "Umm...daddy I did something on accident you need to see.  ...um and your going to be mad."

Ya it looked too tempting.  I suppose I should invest in some monkeybars.  :)

After my initial irritation, I was actually proud of her for coming right to me to tell me.  Makes me feel good to bring a little more honor into the world.  Though...I would like to watch TV.  :)

You can explain that all to her when you sell her to Gypsies to pay for a new one.

Gus is right about the PC, but if all the cables are intact you can probably duct tape it until a tech gets out to fix it. :)

Good on her for being honest. It's a sign you're doing something right :)

The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Now she has no future in politics she's going to have to learn a trade.

For punishment she has to stand outside and hold the receiver together until you can watch TV.  :D

Unfortunately in my attempt to southern engineer it I put a screw right through the copper core of the wire...actually...both wires.  :)

Tell Dish Network you are thinking of switching to DirecTv but that you could be persuaded to stay on for a new dish. Maybe they'll send you one, who knows?
