I finally caved to the wife.
I'm getting rid of the huge entertainment center that was on that
wall.
We'll see how that monster gets picked up from the curb.
That was her idea too. I never liked it.
And I don't like fireplaces, just peace.
Don't even like real fireplaces unless it's in a northern Canadian
lodge and I've been fishing in the cold all day and I can warm up with
a drink in my hand.
But that's somebody else's fireplace anyway.
This one isn't even real, so I like it less.
Only reason I caved is because I can get rid of the entertainment
center.
But if we want a big TV in the living room, it has to hang on the wall
over that "fireplace."
No other place that works in our small house.
I think that's why they get hung over a fireplace,
Just not enough room for everything.


Put it in front of the fireplace, and get a DVD of a burning fireplace. Or, burn
a fire and make your own video to match what you have.
