Bought a new set of hdmi cables for my Pioneer BDP09 because my stock ones were too short.

My wife was like what the heck is this?

Told her I splurged...

... She rolled her eyes trying to see if it said Audioquest....

"$12," I said.

She walks away.

    Remember Joey....she is skilled in pharmaceutical arts and their effects on the human body.

    She'll sprinkle some Oxymorphone into your morning coffee, that should inebriate you long enough to sell your gear off real cheap.

    The real question is... how many zeros did you leave off?

    I'm personally impressed that you would purchase two sets of cables to fool the wife. I think you're finally learning how this marriage thing works.

    Math wasn't your strong suit, was it? I would hope any doctor I have would know the difference between a 9 and a 0. >:)

    Haha... you're right... I must be getting rusty.

    Interesting that you brought up math... I did very well in school and my GPA was perfect in high school and nearly so in college.

    Math was actually my strongest subject and I ran out of math classes to take in high school and ended up setting the curve or going beyond the curve in college math tests.

    I recall finishing the final in 1/2 the time, and scoring above what was technically 100%.

    But you're right... I am rusty as all heck.

    Hahaha... ;)

    You are correct... live and learn.

    Buy 2 sets of things, one will soften the blow or fool the wife.
