Upgrade, tidy-up or perish!

The picture of Osama bin Laden watching TV struck me at revealing two key elements of survival. First, upgrading one's audio visual equipment can pay huge dividends, lessen one's personal fatigue and help stay current. The terrorist should have had a new, larger, flat screen TV, that would have prevented straining his eyes on a tiny screen and along with featuring a “Picture-in-Picture” (PiP) feature that would have come in handy for extensive channel surfing.

The other problem that might caused the fugitive's demise is the “spaghetti bowl” of wires seen next to his audio-visual equipment and running on his dwelling floor. Not only doesn't it look tidy, but I bet Osama must have tripped into it and fell face down when the US commando irrupted into his living room. I hope some of my dear readers will learn from that experience and, sooner than later, will upgrade their old TV and put all these messy electric cables away!
