My wife and I (both of us are physics professors at UW) were walking down the hall in the Hyatt for the APS meeting when the following conversation occurred:

Me: Hey — we haven’t turned on the television the whole time we’ve been here!

Her: Do we even have a television?

Me: (pause) I don’t know. I can’t remember one!

Her: Wait, you put your portable on top of it when you were talking to your student on the phone!

Me: Oh, right! I guess we do have a television!
