I never even thought about it!  My wife is the one who watches movies; 
with very few exceptions, they bore me glassy eyed!  She uses a VCR or 
DVD and a TV set.

I still purchase my clothing in a little store about 50 miles from here. 
  (I used to live a *lot* closer.)

It's a "Big and Tall" store and one of *very few* places where I can get 
clothes that fit me!  I've been going there for the last thirty or 
thirty-five years.  The staff know me by name and I know them.

I like it that way!
