Saying goodbye to my TV friend

[mbates14]

I may not know the tricks of the trade the old dogs did, as i was never around any old dogs growing up, but I am 24 and i do understand and make use of valve technology, as well as the most modern technology. like TVs these days are just computers with a screen that run linux or other variants of unix. But i do have to agree, we are a dying breed. and it royally sucks. I am still young and stupid, but there are no more mentors around to look up to anymore.

I used to look up to a teacher in my 5th grade class whos husband was an electronics technician. that was quite the experience. but you know, thats only been one experience, and the only one. I learned electronics strictly through knowledge and mistakes. especially mistakes. When i made a disastrous mistake, i always figured out what, why and how. thats the best avenue to go at least for me.

Sorry for your loss bro.
