Dude, Where's My Remote?

Late last week, I fell asleep on the couch. Nothing too unusual. It happens quite often when I watch TV before going to bed. I'll wake up a few hours later with the TV on/off and the remote laying on the floor nearby. But this time, the remote is nowhere to be found. We've looked everywhere we could think of, to no avail.

We've had our Home Theater Master SL-9000 for years, and it has never disappeared for this long. I had to dust off the TV, digital cable, VCR and DVD remotes just to get things going. What a pain.

I guess someone is trying to send me a message. Time to upgrade the old beat up remote. I just ordered a Home Theater Master MX-500 which should be here in a few days.

I'm pretty partial to the Home Theater Master remotes. We've used them for years and have always been satisfied. The MX-500 seems to be praised by everyone. I'm just not looking forward to have to reprogram everything.

Now that the new remote is on the way, I'm sure the old one is suddenly going to magically re-appear, right where I left it. I'm starting to get suspicious of the cats. They're looking at me funny…
