WoW!


So I cracked. When it comes to new-fangled technological toy-like items for guys, it doesn't take much to break down my resolve to NOT buy things. Yesterday I was at Costco and there it was...cheaper than I had ever seen before...AND it came with $180 worth of free movies. SO I did it. I bought a Blu-Ray Disc Player.And it is FANTASTIC! It is absolutely amazing how perfect the picture is...how wonderful the all-encompassing sound is...how pathetic my life is.

All this time...I've been such a caveman. My friends...my family...I have found Shangra La, and it's name (dramatic pause) is Blu-Ray.

Umm.. I have NO IDEA what you are talking about. I tend to be a few light-years away when it comes to technology. Well, TV's anyway. Did you know ours is 10 years old? Won't break. Can't buy another one until it does...

Blu-Ray is the next generation of DVD. Because it can hold almost 30 times as much information as a regular DVD, the movies are much,MUCH higher quality in picture and sound. I "hope" your TV dies soon...but only when it is convenient to purchase a new one.

Dear Zach-

I was looking at your friend and family links and I was amused by all of your little nicknames that you have given everyone's blogs (Esther's Echoes, Rachael's Rants, The Wright Stuff, Chris and Company, etc. etc.). Anyway, then I got to the B. Lifferth family and well, I noticed that we don't have nicknames? We are merely Martin and Mindy, Aaron and Monica, and The Smiley Family. I just thought I would bring this to your attention. I'm sure that it was an honest oversight on your part.

Love,

Mindy

i would say you're about to enter a new caveman stage - technologically more advanced yes, but holed up in your hermit cave on your ikea chair nonetheless... ;)

I just realized you will need to upgrade to the HD TiVo now.
