'Pineapple Express'

I don’t watch much TV. In fact, I haven’t had cable or satellite TV for well over 10 years and what shows I do watch I did through old-fashioned rabbit ears. Now that everything’s digital, and I didn’t bother to get one of those boxes, I don’t even get any TV signal.

But I do own a couple of TVs. One is primarily for my son to play video games and the other is hooked up to a DVD player. Call me crazy, but I do intend to buy a big-screen TV this year and will use it for nothing but watching DVDs.

As a result, I watch so many movies that even I forget how many plumbing scenes there are to note. For example, I’m writing this on Wednesday, April 22, which is Earth Day, which reminds me of the trip I just came back from the night before at Wales Darby, PM’s Rep of the Year, which we’ll feature in our June issue, during which I watched a video the Darby brothers got Ed Begley Jr. to do for the grand opening of their Energy Room, a beautiful training facility and showroom featuring energy-efficient heating appliance, which reminded me that I had just seen Ed himself speak on living green a couple of months ago at the MCAA Convention, which reminded me that Ed had been in last summer’s “Pineapple Express,” a stoner action flick that had a great plumbing scene. Enjoy.
