TV Tonight: Take Your Wife out to Dinner Instead
By Nick Carter
(Friday, August 25th, 2006) Look, there’s just not that much on tonight. There’s about enough to keep you from Elvising your TV. Maybe.
Alternately, tonight would be a good night to take your wife (or husband – we’re not sexist here at Toolmonger) out to dinner, so you can gain points for future tool purchases.
