: Dear Diane,
: Yo said,
: "... I love to watch (LOTM)under my covers in my bed room...late a night when my young children are sound asleep. I wear my Sony remote earphones headset, so I can hear every word...and I can turn the sound WAY UP, and not chase my husband from the house. I too have the widescreen version with the THX sound, and it is great when you play it LOUD!"
:
: Sony remote headset and THX version... Lady, I envy you!
: Monday... I have to find the remote ... and still have not had the time to go to Blockbuster to order THX...am too busy rewinding the tape and watching LOTM... I too have been wondering about how long the tape must last. Need to have a copy, that's for sure. while you're copying one for yourself, do a second one (of the THX version) for me, too...
: Here is something to laugh about:
: My cousin, whom now I call rotten and I'll tell you why...
: who has a memmbership at a big BBtr right next door to him, went after my begging and pestering to BB to rent all of Eric's videos for me (which I had long paid him for in advance). He claims, and I refuse to believe him, that no one at BBs had even heard of him!
: He comes back, this cousin of mine, who is a Franco/Italian and fancies himself better looking than Elvis, and snickers: Here, you see, you see, forget about carrying his videos, they don't even know who he is! Not even the girls!
: And I snicker back, fire up the computer, log on the Internet, pull up the Eric Fan sites... and I says:huh? you said WHAT????
: He shrugs and grins: Who cares, cuz? I am better looking than him.
: Psshaaawww!
: One of these days I am going to post my cousin's pic in my website, side by side with Eric and post a voting board too, and the results will wipe the grin off his face!
: Meanwhile, BBtr really did not have his videos.
: And the one who told me that he had bought me Eric's Follow The River, had merely teased me.
: SCANDAL!
:
: On the other hand, I suspect my cousin wants to play the lead in my novel, but I say fuwggattaboutit!
: Meanwhile, ah will tomorrow ever come for the Sonys?
: Enjoy,
: Vita
: : I could not imagine watching LOTM with someone else..god forbid they should speak, and I miss one of my favorite parts...
: : Lastly, how many times can you watch a video before you wear it out? I'd better order myself a backup, just in case. I wouldn't want to be dry.
: : Diane
I will and must watch it often,( it's becoming more important to me than the daily dose of fiber). I can watch it in bits and pieces but prefer the whole enchilada. I can watch it with another, but without is just fine. In fact, I like it best late at night, cause it's dark, by myself, with the sound up as loud as it will go without vibrating. Yes, get a spare just in case your first one konks at an inopportune moment. Some of life's tragedies are completely avoidable.
