U.S. — According to sources, your mom just called because she desperately needs to talk to you. She needs you to come over and fix whatever she did to the TV.
Eyewitnesses say the TV just "went black" one day. Your mom tried everything: the power button, the channel up button, the "+" button, the button that looks like a rainbow, and even hitting the TV like in the old days. Nothing has worked. Mom experts believe this is an issue that only you are capable of fixing.
You took a computer class once; she knows you can do it. She believes in you.
No one knows what she did, but now your dad can't watch Diagnosis Murder — his favorite show. It stars Dick Van Dyke as an old doctor who solves murders. It's an incredible show, and the longer you avoid fixing the TV, the more episodes he will miss. Not good!
In a heartfelt voicemail message, your mom said, "Dad is really upset because I did something to the TV and he can't figure it out. Please, you're our only hope."
You'd better get over there quick. This is a life and death situation.
At publishing time, the TV was on the wrong input.
Congress is preparing to make some big changes!
