I received a coupon from Honda today for $100 off a remote car starter.  I called them and the normal price was $675, but with the coupon it would be $575.  That seems sort of high, but I'd love to have one.

got my 2nd box of BV's.  I had one on Saturday and it smoked ok as well.  No big change in the flavor profile in a week but not unpleasant.  still a bit mild for my tastes, but will probably make a good morning smoke.  Very bland on light up, but it does pick up some when you get about 3/4" into it.
Which one was the BV...?  Was that the bargain buy..?
Buena Vista from Cigar Page.  it was a bargain buy i think.  needs some time to be sure.

Well is it worth $600 loving to have it?  With as good as your wife is with lights and windshield wipers, aren't you afraid of what she would do with that?

Well past the age for worrying about either.  But thanks for the thought.

I went to Best Buy the other day to buy a new DVD player.  I went into the tv department where I was approached by a young salesman.  He asked me if he could help me and I replied, "I would like to buy a new DVD player."  He said, "What...?"  Again I said, "I would like to buy a new DVD player."  He looked at me and shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, but I don't know what you are talking about..?"  I said, "I think I'm saying it right, it's a DVD player.  You put little DVD movies into it, and you can watch movies on your tv.."  He said, "Oh....., you want a Blue Ray Player...!" 

It's really starting to get weird.  The older I get the faster my words are become obsolete, and causing me a big communications problem.

I think the next time this happens to me, I'm going to say, "Aaaaaa, the new word for DVD player is Blue Ray.  What do they call Pussy..?"

That's weird. As far as I know, they're still called DVDs. Blu-ray is a bit different. I suspect your salesperson was a dick.
Me too.   I asked for a simple straight forward small sized DVD Player for Christmas to watch my old b&w tv show dvd's on and Warden picked me up a sony one somewhere but it was just wha ti needed.  Play, FF, Back-Up and stop with a simple remote, hdmi slot and only an inch or so thick and about a foot wide at most.
I got a Sony too (BDP-S6500) for $99.99.  Since I've still not purchased a new tv as I said I was going to do last year at this time, I made sure it had all the features.  Wi-Fi wireless streaming, 4k upgrading, and 3D.  I think it will convert a 2D to a 3D..?  I hooked it up to Netflix on the tv in the bedroom (HD), and it was very impressive.  Now I'm going to have to watch that program on Netflix that everyone has been pissed off about, "Making a Murder."  As for as the new tv, that's an unknown.
Mine is a Sony, cost $29 at Walmart she said, has no bells and whistles and does everything I need which is play my shows when I push the button..  I got some kind of fancy smancy blu ray on another tv that I can't even figure out how to turn on and off.  Warden and the boy use to use it but chit she can barely turn the tv on and off so it just sits collects dust.
You don't turn blu-ray on or off.  It's the reader internal to the device that when you use a blu-ray DVD it gives you greater clarity in your picture.  (Blue laser vs red).  You might mean Bluetooth?

They are all DVD's.  There are subformats/variants like Blu-Ray, 3D, Ultraviolet etc.  Blu-Ray presents a higher resolution than regular DVDs and generally costs a few dollars more.  Being as you never got around to getting the new TV, Blu-Ray difference would not be perceptible to you.

Just like going to the movie theater and choosing between regular, 3D, Imax, RealD, 3D Imax HD and whatever.
Along with that, I'd like to meet the individuals who also gave us dvdr + and dvdr-   and made THEM differenf for some reason, along with blu ray and death ray and ray ray.... sheesh.
Ya doesn't have to call him Johnson. You can call him Jay. Or you can call him Ray. Or you can call him Ray Ray or Ray Jay...

Actually, the salesman was pretty nice.  He seemed honestly to have not understood the term.  He also smelled very nice, but I figured I'd keep that to myself.  After I left I could still smell him for the remainder of the day.  I guess I must have been standing too close...?
You're making me uncomfortable.
I went to my friends party, and there was about 30 or 40 people there.  I had to use the bathroom, and I noticed a bottle of Polo sitting there.  I thought to myself, "No one will notice," so I splashed some on.  I'm not sure if any of you have smelled Polo before, but you can smell this stuff a mile away.  I walked back into the crowded room, and everyone turned and looked at me, and they all damn well knew what I had done...  So if you go to a party and see Polo sitting on the counter, "Don't do it...!"
Yea, I always go with the Brut.

I was thinking about that too.  She came home and said the heater is broke.  At 8 degrees this morning, she started her car for 1 min., then drove it home 3/4 of a mile, and said it's not heating up....  She fricking crazy...  Thank god for the other crazy things she does..!!  }:)
