Today's Reflection ♥ February 15, 2014

"There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish ...  experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to – The Outer Limits. "

Today's Reflection is in honor of my daddy.

When I was much, much younger,  my dad worked for a company called Western Tire Co. Unlike the name suggests, they sold more then just tires, they also sold large and small appliances. My dad had this black pocket size object, with a small screen, which allowed the user to check for bad spots on the color TV screen. I loved using that thing to see all the color dots, which were very hard to see with the unaided eye. It was way cool.

I'm not sure what is being used on the new line of TVs, but our's is at least 25 years old. As you can see in this reflection, the dots are now short lines. The color however is still the same. I didn't know it back then, but these three colors, red, green and blue, (RGB) play an important part in my life today.

My dad knew about many things and I learned much from him. Today I find myself reminiscing. Thank you daddy, for helping me into the future. I miss you. ♥
