This is probably why I haven't been emailing Lee nearly so much, i.e., I have so few things/people to complain about.
Hmm. I'm not sure that's acceptable, even though it is good.
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My tv is scary old. I suspect whatever replaces it will be high def. I just am waiting until it has lived its life fully because I am cheapcheapcheap.
Yeah, me too. I'm hoping my current tv (which I got for free ten+ years ago) lasts until it is absolutely necessary to get a high def set.
I have now had several extended non-work conversations and at least one extended work conversation, and it's still not five?!?!? Cripes.

YouTube is really a great site, because you can always find a video of Hugh Jackman doing high kicks with the Rockettes:

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
my current tv (which I got for free ten+ years ago)Twins!

I still feel like it's not that old -- it came with a remote and everything!

I bought mine used almost (not not quite) 10 years ago, for $40 from a rental place offloading its leftovers. Every so often it does something freaky, like cycle on-off when I first turn it on, or decide to tint everything deep rust red. But cursing and turning it off and then back on again still works as a solution.

What is this I hear about all TVs having to be digital in a couple of years? Is that the same as high def?

Trying again....
What is this I hear about all TVs having to be digital in a couple of years?
TV stations are phasing out analog broadcasts. TVs with analog receivers will need converter boxes.
From Wikipedia: "In the United States by no later than February 17, 2009, all U.S. television broadcasts will be exclusively digital, by order of the Federal Communications Commission...."
Is that the same as high def?
No. All high-def TV is digital, but not all digital TV is high-def.
