Wait a minute. Not all of us have big paychecks. I'm not saying I'm
poor, but I haven't been to the movies in two years. And there are
months my wife and I don't go out to dinner at all. And no, neither of
us smokes cigarettes, and we use a Rabbit Ears antenna instead of cable
TV.

Also, if you live in a warm climate, first you pay to run the computer,
then you pay for the air conditioner to get rid of its heat.
