WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. - A woman who was angry because her husband wanted her to turn up the heat pulled out a gun and shot their flat-screen TV while he cowered behind a pillow, Macomb County authorities say.

The 65-year-old man called 911 Sunday night from the basement of their Washington Township home, about 25 miles north of Detroit.

"My wife's got a gun. She's shooting at me," Joseph Grucz said in the recorded call.

He told the operator that Cheryl Grucz, 61, was angry because he wanted the heat turned up. She fired a round while he hid his head in a pillow, striking the plasma TV, then went upstairs, the Detroit Free Press said.

"She's all excited about it because she's so cheap," the husband said.

His wife, who had picked up another extension, told the operator she wanted to tell her side.

"I'm not going to hurt him. He has pushed me over the edge, that was all," Cheryl Grucz said, according to a recording obtained by WXYZ-TV. "He has had a stroke, and he's taking it all out on me."

"No I'm not," her husband said.

"Yes, he is," she told the dispatcher.

Cheryl Grucz was arraigned Monday in Romeo District Court on a charge of assault with intent to do great bodily harm, a charge with a top penalty of 10 years in prison. She also faces a felony firearms charge. Grucz was freed on $50,000 bond until a preliminary examination Jan. 15.

The judge also ordered her to enroll in a domestic violence program, WDIV-TV said.

This sounds just like my parents - they bicker over the thermostat ALL THE TIME!!

I don't think my mom would go quite that far, however.

LMAO! Same here! If this article didn't mention names I would have sworn it was about my parents! They love each other to death but they also drive each other nuts over the most ridiculous things (younger versions of Frank and Marie from Everybody Love Raymond)

Anyway, while I do feel bad for the poor man thinking his life was in danger.. I can't help but laugh at the visual you get while reading this

Thanks for posting this waichingliu81... got a great laugh out of it

When I read the first paragraph of this story I thought I was reading about my own life!!!

Not quite - but close!! We fight over the heat (I like it hotter) and the number of huge plasma flatscreens my husband buys.

10 years? Isn't that a bit harsh?
