I couldn't believe it when we encountered this very thing on our new Blu-Ray player - I've been so used to popping DVDs in and out and having the thing just -remember-. I even tried leaving the Blu-Ray player on pause all night just to see if we could resume it the next day, AND WE COULDN'T. This is state of the art? Stop fiddling with the things that the A/V heads love and give us back some consumer friendliness, you bastards! Actually, the one thing your posting helped me do is avoid returning the player in the hopes that another player would do better. I think I'm going to have to have both DVD and Blu-Ray players around so that I don't go crazy; I was hoping to just have the one. So thank you for that :) You know, thanks for this rant.

You would catch me at a time I don't have any pulp free orange juice in the house. This requires more thought than I’m willing to give it right now.

And when we're done being screwed, our children are screwed. If we stopped collecting income tax for six months this country would collapse. Now that we are approaching the 2 Trillion Dollar Mark on the "Economic Bailout" plans people need to realize that this equates to between a 15 and 20,000 dollar tax burden for every family in the US. So basically, we're giving our money to the worst money managers in the world anyway. There was a great man. His name was Ronald Reagan. Reagan decided that he agreed with the 4th grade economics he'd been taught. Deficit spending doesn't mean anything. I mean it's just numbers, paper and a ink, right? Hell, is it even that? How much of the money you use, do you actually every really see? Spend it...all of it, we can print more. Hell, we can print enough to send everyon $600.00 in the mail last year. My prediction for 2010-2011: Mr. Whipple will be the face on the $10.00 bill. We are so screwed…

Wait, he just saved you some work... alright, now I'm confused, which God were you referring to? God cannot build a house that Earl Shive can’t paint. Wait, he just saved you some work…

These two sets on the same roads guarantee lots of accidents all over the city when two inches come down.

However, I got bored with that after the first two years. Why suffer through a couple of weeks of that when any really entertaining moments in an entire run of one year of IDOL can probably be encapsulated in about 6 minutes worth of YOUTUBE clips. As an American, I enjoy watching people fail, but at some point even that's not enough to hold my interest.
