Radio Shack

I used to love Radio Shack - back many years ago when I was a kid. All the cool electronic stuff. But then they changed. It seemed that nothing you bought at Radio Shack worked very long. Then I also found that the people working at Radio Shack really didn't know much about electronics. I recently got some educational materials in the mail from NASA. One of the items was a small amplifier and speaker from Radio Shack. When I hooked it up - guess what - it didn't work. I managed to fix it, but geez, do we have to fix everything we buy now? Most people can't do that.
