I got the funny (aching) back, put cushions on the floor to watch the ball game or whatever on tv of an evening.
I'm lower than a couch potato. I'm a floor potato. :-)
Also in my second (and last) childhood. Fix supper, carry it in, eat in front of the tube.
I tilt the supper plate a degree or 2 and the silverware scoots across the shiny plate, lands on the floor, usually with part of the meal.
Anybody ever seen a no-mess "tv plate" or somesuch with maybe little apertures for the silverware on the US market??
