This kindle short is a really good laugh. I loved Bob. I think we all know a character like this:  a person so set in his ways, resistant to new things, and cheap; a man whose best friend is duct tape because, afterall, they just don't make 'em like they used to! Why bother with the new stuff when the old is still working and still useable? Poor Bob, he ends up with some new-fangled gadget that changes his whole outlook. I was laughing out loud several times. The writing was that good. From the droll characterization of Bob to the deadpan delivery of Carol Ann, each word was effortless and natural and clever.
