The remote control

The reason why it is called a remote control is because it has a habit of disappearing. The AC has a bracket for it and you are absolutely sure you put it there but now you need it and it has gone. TV remote controls are masters of the game. By some unexplained logic we always look under the magazines and then the cushions and it is never there. It is a kind of Defcon 3 alert, where is the remote? Legend has it that the guy who invented the remote in tribute was buried under the sofa or under a pile of magazines.
