Then you might want to look away for a minute, lest your childhood memories be diminished. Everyone else can take a good look at this 98-inch screen that Patti Deni had installed flush in the ceiling of her son's bedroom."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1249140056.usr10.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>This woman has done a great disservice to parents everywhere. &nbsp;No all the kids are going to demand ceiling mounted TV's for Christmas this year. &nbsp;I must be getting old. &nbsp;I though my 9 inch black and white TV with pong was pretty cool. &nbsp;Although it is very nice installation, I still think a TV on the ceiling would be pretty uncomfortable to watch. &nbsp;OK, I'm just jealous. &nbsp;</p>

Now i could be totally wrong, but wouldn't this qualify as "more money than brains?" I think so. Plus, I'm pretty sure it contributes to "the nerve of some people's brats." I think we've all spent enough of our day now proving that People Are Funny.
