Philips 1080p 42” LCD HDTVPhilips 1080p 42” LCD HDTV

Come on in, guys! You’re just in time!

The big game is about to start!

No. Why would I say “Who dat?” That’s not even English. No, I said, “Who is that?” I’ve never heard of him. Is he in the Sporting category? I don’t follow the Sporting Breeds much. I’m more a Toy and Working Breed kinda guy.

Are you kidding? No, man. I just ordered this refurbished Philips 42” 1080p HDTV; there’s no way it would’ve gotten here in time for the big game! Look, it’s on now!

Oh man, there he is: Try Try Again. There isn’t a Bernese Mountain Dog alive that can take him down. Look at that coat! So black and luxurious. I’m telling you, this Widescreen aspect ratio and 29000:1 dynamic screen contrast makes it feel like you’re there!

Earlier I hooked up my USB drive and watched the stills from last year’s show as a slideshow. Then, while I was making these delicious finger sandwiches you’ve yet to compliment me on, I was listening to some mp3s of past shows’ color commentary.

Not a February goes by that I don’t get Westminster Kennel Club fever!
