I just got back from the stores where I had the courage to check myself out for the first time.

Bought some guy stuff at the everything for a € and up tools section. I can never resist those things. Now I have more screwdrivers, a set square and a laser level.

Checked the video cameras, but I am going to think a little longer about that. I also saw something that Pup and Nully could do with. If it was in the € and up section I would have bought it.

Oh! I forgot to mention that if you think you have any landmines in your house you need this Robot.

Probably a good sharkhunter too Derly.

I have one of those robot vacuums. They work incredibly well, considering the minimal power output from the batteries. Problem is, my dog is scared to death of it.

She runs when she sees me get out the Vidalia Onion Chopper, too. What’s a woman to do? Use the upright vacuum, and chop her own durned onions!

Well done. A man cannot have too many of those things. I got a laser level a year or two ago and found it very useful, especially when doing a tile backsplash for the kitchen.

You’re right.

Damm you.

I have 3 Roombas, 2 for floors and one that cleans gutters.

They are wonderful at cleaning up and the cats enjoy watching them much more than a regular vac. Plus, owners like them so much that they have done all sorts of wild things with them.

Here's one dressed up for the family kitten:
