I wonder what sort of TV it is, it just accumulated 9000 hours non-stop and kept going.

He was blind for years. Why not simply listen to a tape recorder or something similar instead of the TV? Would have saved him a ton on electricity.... rather off point ;p

Who was paying all the bills while after he died? I surprise the power company didn't turn the juice off.

Here is my theory on why the electricity was never turned off.

He was 70, he was retired, he lived in a nice looking house. He lived on a fixed income, and they just direct deposited his pay every month, and his bills took them directly out every month.

It could happen.

ZOMG...it's Diekan in 40 years!

Woman-haters always die alone watching TV. :lol:
Inside each person lives two wolves. One is loyal, kind, respectful, humble and open to the mystery of life. The other is greedy, jealous, hateful, afraid and blind to the wonders of life. They are in battle for your spirit. The one who wins is the one you feed.
