Well let me think.
There is evidently the computer and a HD camera. But I am going to stop using the camera and returning to film this spring. (I am old I do not want to make or play with garbage anymore)

I do not have a microwave and my coffee maker is an old percolator
None of my cars were made after 1975. (I never buy new cars)
My telephone is a land line
My stereo plays records
My television is not flat screen but a big wooden console.
Obviously my old refrigerator and stove are increasing in value because lots of people want to buy them.

I understand my stuff is old but it all still works and looks good. (I take care of my things) I see no reason to spend money on junk I do not need only to impress other people.

So to respond to your commentaire. No nerds do not own me but I suppose they own you and virtual currency is still a stupid idea born from too much Dungeons and Dragons.

Poor guy.
Electronic text vanishes when you pull the plug. I therefore have as much emotional investment in it as I have changing the channel on my television.

As for calling me Grandfather. I told you before I want to know which whore was your grandmother and I want a blood test before I take financial responsibility for your family.
