The Domestication of Animals

Provided us with easy-to-get food, labor, transportation, and, most importantly, companionship: specifically dogs, more specifically golden retrievers and yellow labs, most specifically Sam, Heather, and Tasha. What can I say, I love my poochies!

[Vickie_M]

When I was a kid, I'd read stories about how movie moguls and big stars would have screenings of movies in their homes, and I thought that was the COOLEST THING EVER! I dreamed about what it would be like to be able to watch any movie I wanted, any time I wanted. It seemed like something for only rich, exotic people.

(Looking at my DVD library of 1100 titles, and thinking of that kid I was...)

I'm not sure what to call my next choice. Personal Media? - would include laser discs, VHS, Beta, DVDs, Tivos, and even, to a smaller extent, cable and satellite movie channels, and PPV (though I never use PPV). Maybe just "Home Theater"

How about Personal Media (or something)/Home Theater?

(Did the KC connection work again?)
