Summary

Description

In the morning I noticed my DVD player was still on after watching a movie last night. I'm not sure why I started thinking this, but the machine just sits there flashing "No Disc" for hours, for ever if I let it.

Maybe it's just a patient entity, "I am just waiting for you Alan. I really should be turned off, but if you want to waste electricity and my components, that's okay. I will wait here for ever. I wont get annoyed if you do not pay me attention."

Or maybe its just dumb. "Doh doh. I got no disk, Nope, Where am I gonna get a disk? Nope. Dope. Doh. Maybe I have disc. Where is it? Where is that guy? Do i have a disk?"

And maybe it is just an inert machine, no thoughts at all.

Reality and rationality are just no fun.
