How good it is I wasn't anticipating snow... The Weather Channel is broadcast on a large screen TV at work, one of the few channels permitted on the HD Network, and they have been shrieking out forecasts of an impending winter doom and while it's snowing in Chicago... and Nebraska we, however, have an extremely thin dusting... if you want to call it that.
And today begins my weekend - 2 consecutive days off. Simply lovely, I think. I had thought of sleeping in, but after sleeping for around 10 hours the bladders of big dogs are quite full. You listen when 180 pounds of dogs tell you they need to go outside and pee.
I have a number of cycling DVDs I bought back when I was using my Cycleops Trainer which have been sitting on the shelf unused for years. Since I'm doing my running / jog thing several days a week on the treadmill, I thought I might get some use out of them again. Unfortunately, I have no DVD player. I gave that away a long time ago. So I bought an inexpensive one I saw on Amazon. A Jinhoo. It had good ratings, and it doesn't work. It will begin to play and then starts to spin so badly it vibrates and the vibration is so bad the little thing sounds like a washer going into spin cycle. In the troubleshooting section of the manual it actually says that if this happens the player was probably damaged during shipping which is a good indicator this must happen quite often. It's getting returned today.
And what about Dominion suing Giuliani for $1.3 billion?
I don't have a DVD player either. I use the Xbox for now but if I decide to upgrade that I will have nothing.
ReplyDeleteCrap, I have an xbox 360, that would probably play DVDs.
DeleteGood for Dominion!
ReplyDeleteOh, my yes. They're going to rake Rudy across the coals.
Deletewe are currently having a sleet/rain mix at 9:20a.
ReplyDeleteI admire dominion going after the liars!
Damn right, they have a reputation they need to maintain and that means smacking the shit out of liars.
DeletePoor Rudy. This couldn't happen to a more deserving asshat.
ReplyDeleteI understand his attorney has said abut his association with the Idiot Jerk "you lie down with dogs you get fleas."
DeleteGiuliani was on the radio (I believe) and his response to the Dominion lawsuit was totally incomprehensible!
ReplyDeleteMaybe he's setting himself up for an insanity plea.
DeleteAnd Gouhliani is screeching for Dominion to sue him! Like he doesn't care. Oh I so want to see both him and the Kraken dragged and ruined. So much.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's snowing here. They're forecasting a ton of snow but the suburbs have been ok. It's near the lake that things are going amok.
XOXO
Yeah, I heard he's saying now Dominion can be investigated... he evidently doesn't know they've already done that down in Georgia.
DeleteAnd I do know a little about Chicago, was there for my basic training and A school for the Navy.
My only DVD player is with my laptop.
ReplyDeleteHorrible that the one you ordered doesn't work and if the company knows it gets damaged during shipping, you would think they would find a work around (better packing or look to see why). I hope they refund you.
Yeah, the definition of cheapness is when you put a comment like that in the owner's manual.
DeleteAnd you damn well know neither of them have that kind of money.
ReplyDeletePoor Rudy is stilling waiting to be paid by the dump! Bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
Alas....three drops of sleet here. Maybe we should get together and do a snow dance? Power in numbers right?
We're getting rain with a little icing, but not much, and it's supposed to be over by early this afternoon.
DeleteAnd poor Rudy, this is going to entertaining as hell.
At least your dogs tell you
ReplyDeleteDorothy just walks into the kitchen and goes like a horse
Sorry, but hahahahahahaha
