| OK, first off you might have noticed this edition of the Dumb Kwestion is not coming from Staybrite but rather yours truly.I got in touch with him and he said I could go ahead and issue this round myself.
I had a thought that slapped me upside the head and left a mark that will likely leave a scar. I started thinking and realized that would be a dumb kwestion. So now I will share it with you and lets see what you have to say.
How many remote controls do you have?

| Fantastic idea for a dumb question! On the surface it would seem like we only have 3 or 4. One each for the DVD player, vcr (yes we still have one), and the tv. We also have to use one of the Wii controllers as a remote for Netflix. But we also have two or three tower fans that have their own remotes. So at least 6 remotes counting the fan. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| In the living room, one for the dvd player, one for the dvd recorder, one for the TV (which has the Netflix button on it) and one for the cable box.
In my daughters room, one for each of the 2 dvd players, one for cable box, one for Wii and maybe more I don't know about.
One in dining room for the stereo.
One in my truck for the stereo (which is pointless because I am about a foot from the controls anyway). | |

| Umm… two for our computers (for the Front Row entertainment thing that never really went anywhere), one for our TV, one for our DVD player, probably one for our main and one for our TV stereo, one universal, and probably one for our DVD recorder. How many do I use? Clearly none, because I had to think for a while on this one. Oh, and if we're counting garage door openers, most likely two per door, which makes four. I'm not even sure, since we have the signals programmed into our cars. | |

| 1. Gotta have the TV remote to switch between "Sources" 2. DVD recorder has some functions that are not on other remotes, so gotta have that one 3. 1 of 2 Satellite controls. 1 for living room, 1 for dining room/kitchen 4. Oldest one I have is about 17 years old - for my CD-R deck. Still use it after all these years ! 5. E.T. center amplifier remote 6. Cheapo dvd player (in case I want to burn a dvd to a dvd-r) 7. Roku (perhaps the most used remote, 2nd to the satellite) 8. Yes, we have a remote control for our fake fireplace... hey it's cool ! And for those times when I can't find a remote to just turn the tv on or off or change the volume or mute it.... my cell phone is always handy and the App works perfect ! | |

| One for the BluRay/DVD player, one for the cable in the living room, one for the cable in the bed room and one for the stereo. Those are the active ones. I'm sure there are others laid to rest elsewhere in the house | |

| This is worse than when I had to count wifi connections. Between tv, dvd, game systems, sound systems, fans and heater, I count 22. 26, if you count the remotes for the cars. No wonder I can't keep batteries in my house. | |

| If we're counting all remotes - I'd have to add in the 2 car remotes, 2 remotes for both fireplaces, 2 remotes for both AC units, 1 remote for our ceiling fan in the office... and 1 remote for the farting teddy bear... yes we have one of those (hours of fun, trust me) | |
