Providence.

So, recently I'd been thinking about how I'd really like a larger TV. I keep seeing people getting these 42" and larger HDTVs, and they're not even that expensive these days.

Yesterday at work, two of my coworkers cleaned out the hardware room, and put all the stuff we no longer use on the loading dock. Included in this stuff was what turned out to be a perfectly working DLP projector, max resolution 1280x1024, that originally retailed for between $3000 and $4000. The bulb in it - which replacing would cost around $250 - has only been used just over 400 hours of a possible 2000 before it needs to be replaced.

I can think of only two words to adequately express how I feel about this: Baruch Hashem.

P.S. The extraction of my wisdom teeth this morning also went well. The projector came to me at the perfect time to help me better enjoy my enforced couch potato time (doctor's orders) for today and tomorrow.

P.P.S. I am thus far rather unimpressed with Percocet.
