Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why do you buy Vizio #3 in that scenario? Are they crack-laced?

We've had a LG for 2 years so far, works exactly the same as new.

I'm glad I remembered the Samsung rec, because there were a lot of nice looking Vizios at Costco when I was looking.

I did end up returning the first Samsung I got there. Partly because I realized I probably could fit a bigger one than I had thought, but also because the volume level on the one I got didn't go very high, even for the small room I'm in. I ended up getting a bigger Samsung, but also jumping up a level or two in quality. It's very nice so far.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just hook my stereo into my TV. I don't even know how loud my TV can go.

I have some sorta-generic TV from Radio Shack I bought a year and a half ago. Crossing my fingers that it will live a long life.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I just had to steer my brother-in-law Samsung direction based on this conversation.

I think that it's still under warranty, so she keeps getting them replaced.

I KNOW!

All is well that ends in pizza.

LG has sure improved in consistency and quality since they started coordinating their internal purchasing [link] maybe that also lead to quality controls.

Thanks, LeN. I'll pass it on.

Our wings are not tired.

Okay, for those of you with Tivo and Hulu Plus and/or Netflix, I have a question: what are you still Tivo-ing? That is, what specifically do you use your Tivo for that you aren't getting through either Hulu or Netflix?

I am still weighing all options and am eager for anecdotal data.
