A Tele-Reunion

We got a new TV several weeks ago.  The old one was fine, but it was big, and well, old. The keeper wanted a new one that was leaner and sleeker.  So after the new one arrived before Christmas, she carefully bundled up the old one with its converters and antenna and remote, and drove to Goodwill. Before leaving it she told the man what a good tv it had been and how she had included everything with it.  She drove away wondering if they would dump it.  The other day she walked into the same Goodwill looking for a container to hold our dry catfood.  On a whim she decided to check the tv selection.  There it was, our old tv, working better than it did at home, $19.95, with all its attachments.  A sweet reunion.  She told all the people who would listen, and there was a passel of folks watching the tvs there, what a good  tv this was. She also found a designer coat for $6.50.  and we did get a container for our dry food. Who knows, she might visit Goodwill more often.
