With the large wide screen TVs being expensive, is it feasible to get a 2nd set

suspenseful @suspenseful (40192) • Canada 7 Nov 08

Years ago before the HD TVs came into play, families would have a large TV set in the living room, and one or more in the bedroom, usually a smaller portable one. Now I am omitting that some families could only afford one set, and...

filmbuff Personally I think people tend to have more than one tv set if they like to watch tv, sports or dvd's. Right now I think it's more of a combination of the old and the new, a lot of people will be upgrading to HD in the next few months (think christmas and...

suspenseful @suspenseful (40192) • Canada 6 Nov 08

filmbuff I have some of the skinny on why old tv shows cost so much on DVD. There are actually several reasons: 1) Most have to be digitally remastered, which isn't cheap and then they have to try to find some "extras" to put on there. 2) Production costs: Its...

Can you read MUSICAL NOTES?

vesuvius @vesuvius (1677) • Philippines 28 Oct 08

Recently I have been involved in our local church choir, and because of this I am now very used to seeing musical pieces. These papers contain several musical symbols, which for absolute beginners in music, are quite confusing yet...

filmbuff As a musician, and a music major in college I think it's safe to say I can dechiper most symbols found in music. Music is kind of like a cool algebra, and the notation is the language. If you want to expand your musical knowlege and really learn to...

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 6 Nov 08

I know I haven't been around much, and that I've disappeared for months on end. Some of you may know that I was recently hospitalized with a ruptured appendix. It was touch and go for while but I seem to be improving, although it...

Have you, or anyone you know survived a ruptured appendix, or appendicitis?

filmbuff @filmbuff (2909) • United States 1 Nov 08

In the last couple of months I have heard about three people in my local area that have died from appendicitis, or a ruptured appendix. The ironic thing is that my appendix ruptured about two months ago. Prior to my own...

filmbuff Recovery I'm told will take a year, due to the complications and the fact that once it ruptured, the procedure was elevated from routine to major stomach surgery. Other than that, I've been good, working hard at my not so new 6 month old job. Ironically, a...

filmbuff My best advice would be to be completely frank and honest with them. They will smell the bs, and really face facts they like you and I and most everyone will probably experiment with drugs at some point. If you can be honest and give them some real facts, it...

filmbuff I know it's easy to say, but really just try not to stress over it! Do your part to make your voice heard and vote for whomever you think is the best candidate(s), then just sit back, and enjoy the show. The chips will fall where they may, and yes it may not...
