Amen to this. I actually found a little 9" CRT TV in a closet recently and fired it up. Still works! The best part was the warm hiss of static on the screen; this one is old enough that it doesn’t throw up a blue screen if there’s no signal, so I can actually see the static as it tries in vain to find an analog signal that no longer exists.

68 posts, and no one has even questioned how much a “banker’s salary” is? It was an important part of the equation, even when you already had a billion dollars.
I mean, my wife used to work at a bank for nearly 20 years and never even got to 50k a year.

Billion dollars: I’d clone Ed Wood Jr for the copious bounty of bad movies he would provide, on which MST3K can continue to thrive.
Banker’s Salary: Every year, another movie or five. Ed knows how to keep those costs down.

I’d crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamentation of their women.
