Death Penalty

[AFTT47]

I would think if I was being rules by emotions, I'd insist on the eye for an eye mentality. Which I don't. It's good you don't take your anger out on inanimate objects anymore. property can get messed up that way. Though ironically jostling an old TV can actually help when it's not working right.

It made me some money when I was a teenager. I was studying electronics and one of my father's co-workers paid me to fix his TV. This was back in the day (the 70s) when TVs had a shitload of adjustments that people who didn't know what they were doing could massively fuck up. He screwed up an adjustment called dynamic convergence which was something that made sure the red electron beam hit the red phosphors and the same with the blue and the green. I got that all straightened out and made some money. A few months later, there was some problem and it pissed the guy off so much that he pulled off the back of the TV and ripped wires out of the thing. It turned out to be station difficulty which caused the problem - not the TV. There were problems with the TV now though and he just bought a new one.
