plasma tv, home theater

Last night the phone rang and it was mom. I hadn't talked to her and dad in a while, because they'd been on vacation in Florida visiting my aunt. She called to tell me how the trip was, and also to ask if I could come over sometime soon. She said that dad had something he wanted me to see. Now I really figured that they'd brought something back from Florida with them, but when I asked mom what it was that he wanted me to see, she said it was their new Plasma TV.

Had I heard her correctly? Did mom just say they'd bought a Plasma TV? I repeated it back to her and she confirmed that dad had bought a Plasma TV. Since I really didn't understand how they could have got home that particular day and already they have a Plasma TV, I decided to ask questions about when and where they had bought it.

Mom said that dad really wanted to tell me the story about the Plasma TV, so when he told me that I should act interested and surprised, as though I was hearing it for the first time. I promised that I would do just that and mom proceeded with the story. Apparently my uncle has a Plasma TV and dad commented on it after watching it for a few nights in a row while they were in Florida. Dad also commented that he figured the Plasma TV was real expensive since he'd seen them in the stores and walked right past them because he wasn't willing to pay the price. He went on to ask my uncle if he could get a Plasma TV cheaper in Florida. Apparently when dad asked that question, my uncle pulled out the computer and showed him the 42" Plasma 720p 600mhz Black. Model - 42PQ30C that he found at Shop For Home Theater whose online store can be found by visiting www.shopforhometheater.com. Dad was surprised at the price that my uncle had paid for the Plasma TV and said that he wouldn't mind having one for that price.

Mom said that at that point they called her into the living room, showed her the TV on the screen and asked what she thought about them buying one. She gave it the go ahead, and my uncle walked him through the ordering process and had it sent to my parent’s home. They were home two hours and the Plasma TV arrived. Looks like I'm going to take my husband with me so that he can help dad set up the Plasma TV since dad doesn't know a whole lot about that kind of thing. I also have to remember to act surprised when he tells me the story that I've now heard.
