The Netflix shipping issue was much publicized but it didn't delay anthing for me and they issued me a small credit. Netlix has done a great service for me for nearly 5 years now, and they are the only game in town keeping BB on their toes IMHO. I feel like I get my money's worth from Netlix, BB...

I have been debating the same question for about three weeks now, while also throwing in a third possibility of waiting until 2009 and getting a 50"/1080p. My viewing distance is also 10 feet, and I have pretty firmly decided on a Panasonic Plasma. After some online research and trips to...

I haven't bought one yet but I have been researching the heck out of them and the Panasonic Plasmas seem to be the best bang for the buck in Plasmas. Sears has the Panasonic TH-50PX75U (720p) on sale for $1,599 right now, and all 50" sets are $250 off if you buy it with their store card. This...

I spent some time watching a $7,500, 1080p, 60" Pioneer Elite (don't remember exact model #) last night at the store and I have to say I am somewhat glad I cannot afford it. The picture is so fantastic that I might not ever get off the couch. The Panasonics are a close second, but the Pioneer...

My brother-in-law ran into them at a gym in Austin sometime within the last year. They must be in shape!

I have a friend that is in the wine business that travels nationally. He moved his business and family from San Francisco back to Denver so he could spend more time with them. He says it is pretty easy for him to make 10AM meetings in Napa flying out of the Denver airport. It is also easier on...

I am really looking forward to it as well. I think all good film and TV starts with good writing and I think Sorkin is the master as well. I was big fan of West Wing. I never caught Sports Night when it aired but I have recently been catching the series through my Netflix account. It is...

It will be very interesting how they will overcome this betrayal of Irina's. Just when you thought she had gone completely on the dark side, and that she would never come back she sends Syd a hopeful encoded message. Somehow later this season or next she is going to come back and say she had to...

A much better episode than last weeks. A bummer we won't see a new episode for a couple of weeks. I guess we will see Jack's rage for a few weeks. Jack fell for it all! I don't think Jack and Syndney would have any problem pulling the trigger themselves on Irina now. Hopefully Will can...

I have had a great time watching Emmitt play the last 13 years and have been fortunate to see him play in person about 25 times. I think he is a great running back and a has a lot of class. I don't want to see him play in another uniform but I think he has one more really good year left in him...

I think she was nominated for five? I didn't watch all of it as I was switching back and forth between the Grammys and Alias. I guess she won everything she was nominated for. Congrats to Norah, it is a truly spectacular album! Edit: It looks like she did win six, including Album of the...

Good episode. I am glad to see Dixon making his way back into the story and forgiving Sydney. The obvious Ford Focus product placement continues, I don't care for that stuff when it is so blatantly obvious. It pulls me out of the story. I wonder how long it will be until the "evil...

Yeah - I do think it is possible Dixon is K-directorate - he might like Sydney enough to do her one favor (send her the code) even if he knew it would not be good for him. I do think some of this weeks episode was oversimplified for new viewers to catch up - I noticed the flashed SD6...

Patrick M - West Wing and Alias are also my two must not miss shows. As has been discussed on this board Alias does require the viewer to suspend reality - as in Michael and Sydney-- we're going to go on a SWAT style raid, shoot a bunch of people, and then fall into each other's arms and...

Great episode. I wondered how they were going to bring Sloane back. I guess we know now. I missed the music they usually play during the opening credits, I wonder if it will be back.

I'll be watching on a DLP projector on an 11 foot screen at a friends house. I watched it last year in 480P on Fox (I don't consider that true HD). This year it will be 1080i (Dallas ABC affiliate) My first true 1080i HiDEF broadcast! With ALIAS to follow in HiDEF! Wohoo! I am cooking the...

I loved this episode. Sydney pulling up in the car and telling her dad to get in. (you do have to watch the show regularly to get that one). Sydney yelling a long list of complaints to Vaughn and then adding, "you didn't even tell me you got back together with Emily!" Oops - I don't think...

Since you already have some DIY experience, I think the av1's are a great starter project. If you already have some woodworking tools, you can buy the mdf for $10 and put the cabinet together yourself. I have listened to both and I am planning to build an av1+ or av3 kit just because I like...

How about Irina dropping the bomb on Jack that they are still married. The looks Lena Olin give him at times are priceless, even in prison and as much as he says he hates her, I think she still has him a grip on him. Vaughn is playing the good guy helping his girlfriend through a tough time...

There are several that I like here they are with my favorite first. Some of the furniture these guys build in their spare time is amazing. The woodworking community will be pretty helpful when it comes to helping someone buy new tools. http://www.forums.woodnet.net...

Nice looking flexy! :emoji_thumbsup:

Brian - how many years are we going to have to go till one breaks and we find out who the final winner is! I do feel like I have gotten my moneys worth on this car. I sure don't have enough of a control group to prove that my A/C wouldn't have lasted this long without turning off the switch, but...

Well I have to say I am a big believer in turning off the AC button 30 seconds before the engine. I have a 1990 Chevrolet pickup that is now going through it's thirteenth Texas summer with the original A/C compressor. Somebody told me years ago to turn off the little AC button (I leave the...

It sounds like they have clearly issued the terms of the agreement to the customer on the card and are going back on their word. In my opinion they are making money off of their customers by breaking a contract. Yes, I would call the Better Business Bureau, anonymously if you want to.

Five Days I third the recommendation of Swingers The Dao of Steve is pretty funny also and has a few good dating truths in it.

Also counter -intuitive is getting a narrow seat, they usually work best for long rides. Sometimes getting a really wide seat can lead to chafing:frowning: I do not think a gel cover will help your current situation at all. Sometimes a well made leather seat won't start out feeling the best...

Non Fiction: By Stephen Ambrose Undaunted Courage about the Lewis and Clark expedition and Nothing Like it in the World about the building of the transcontinental railroad right after the civil war. He's also written several excellent books about D-day and WWII. Fiction: I really enjoy...

Very nice work! :emoji_thumbsup:

Truly impressive work again Eric!

I don't agree with mandatory sentences either. I'll give you an example. This spring a high school kid in the area with the help of his father helps to move his grandmother over the weekend. A small knife falls out of one of the boxes into the back of the pickup. No one notices it until a...
