In the local video store the other day I asked the owner if he was carrying the new "21 Jumpstreet" DVD. He immediately retorted with irritation bordering on anger:
"No! I mean, where would it end?!?!"
"Excuse me?"
"Where would it END?! I mean, TELEVISION!? I'd have to get a whole 'nother store!"
"But you have 'Six Feet Under' and 'The Sopranos' on DVD." I pointed out."
"Well, sure. Some cable shows maybe. But television! It would never end. No."
Uncomprehending, I observed that even stocking only movies he could still easily have more than would fit in his closet sized store.
"No. I'm not doing that. No. No television. No. It would never end."
