hey dr. dré and lumpy

hmmm, blu-ray. i just finally got a proper dvd player (having previously used an xbox and computers to watch movies) so i don't know if i will get one any time soon. plus, i think i've run out of places i can plug things into on my tv. between my receiver, tivo, wii, and dvd/vcr, i don't know if i have any free slots

But he's the only one I noticed! Maybe you just need to speak up more.

I enjoy movies, but there books and music take up a lot of my time, and writing...when I'm not being lazy.

i probably post there more than you do!

I still haven't upgraded from analogue to digital TV yet, either through buying a new TV or a set-top box. I just don't see the point. Digital doesn't look any better to analogue to me, so I feel no need to fork out money for an upgrade. Plus, I'm not a fan of widescreen TVs, so I'll probably just end up getting a set-top box to with my nice, old analogue TV that has served me well for over a decade.

Honestly, the only times I've been there have been before and after gigs to look at setlists and that's it! So I suppose the reason why I've seen him and not you is that he'd be posting about the Aussie shows I'm interested in.

My TV is ancient. My parents gave it to me when my TV died a few years ago and they were getting an HDTV. I have to unplug my DVD player when I use my Wii.

Yep, same. I pretty much always have music on, then I go to books whenever I get away from the computer (ah, long tram rides!), writing when I stop being lazy, and movies are at the bottom of the heap.

ha, you'd be screwed if you lived here! in february, everyone has to go digital or they won't receive channels anymore. we've been digital for maybe 10 years? we had digital cable then switched to satellite. now all our tvs are hd

i'll start doing that now. i'll post something like "i didn't see this show, but i'm sure it was good!" in every concert thread.

Well, Cubs win.

And, I just kinda zoned out there for a while.

So, hello again I guess

This is true. I wanna say my TV is digital, but I'm not too sure. It has a nice flat-screen, but it's not HD.
