Denver, January 26^th - Sad news emerged tonight from the Mile High City as we’ve learned that a man lost his television clicker.

“I lit up the Indica,” the man revealed when we asked him how he handled the atrocity.

At approximately 5 o’clock last Monday, Todd Bridges came home from work and, like any other day, began smoking.

“I don’t know man, I got off work at around 5 and loaded up the Roor like I always do.”

We researched the Roor and discovered that Todd was referring to a high-quality bong that costs upwards of $300. When we inquired about this pricey utility, Todd proudly proclaimed that he paid rent two weeks late just so he could afford it.

“I told the landlord that life’s not always about money, but he still got all furious at me. That Roor gets you coughin' real nice though, jah feel?” Todd exclaimed chuckling and then immediately convulsing into a fit of coughs.

The night continued normally as Todd flicked between "Seinfeld," "Family Guy," "That 70's Show," and "How I Met Your Mother." Around 6:30 p.m., Todd claims to have left the couch to concoct some chips and dip, but returned within minutes. He began to anticipate the "X-Files" premiere that started in half an hour. This was the last time the clicker was seen.

When he returned to the couch, Todd said that "Seinfeld" was currently airing, and did not notice the clicker was gone until the commercial break, which came around 6:40 p.m. The dire situation only escalated.

“I really started to worry around 6:58 p.m. when I knew that the "X-Files" started in a couple of minutes. I was thinking, 'Man, I’m gonna miss the entire show and there’s nothing I can do.' I loaded up another bong so I could chill, but "Married with Children" came on. Then I knew I was [expletive.] That show’s the worst.”

Todd explained how he looked around frantically, but couldn’t see it anywhere. He even lifted the cushion next to his seat, but to no avail. Once he grasped the gravity of his situation, reality set in. Todd accepted his fate and took a nap.

“You really start to contemplate everything, man. I started wondering what was on Discovery channel when it really hit me,” Todd sighed, showing very little emotion. “It sucked, man, it really, really sucked.”

He still has not watched the new "X Files" and will begin season two of "Married With Children"tonight. He asked that we use his crisis to make people aware that it can happen to anyone. Yesterday was Todd’s third day in a row without calling out of work.

“What’s the point, man? It’s not like I can watch TV.”
