No, our tv is just quite old. You have to do all this menu change stuff to turn off the cable, and turn on the vcr/dvd. In theory, it wouldn't be hard with the vcr/dvd...alas, the tv just is too old.
Happy-ment of the day: I got my tax refund already!
Oy, poor Amber. I bought a DVD/VCR combo last summer, only to find that when it played VHS tapes, there was no sound. I ended up having to buy a separate VCR to be able to watch any TV shows I might have to tape.

I'm scared... I have to figure out how to tape on one channel and watch another at the same time. The Junos are on tonight, too. At the same time as Cold Case. *bites nails*
My VCR/DVD player is great I have two stacks of tapes that I recorded things on in two piles that are seriously like 3 feet high. I keep meaning to go through them, but I haven't had time. I record too many things.
My mom managed to make prom dress shopping less than fun. Actually, this whole prom thing isn't very much fun at all. I really wish I had a different date (I know, I'm horrible).
Can someone upload the Under Pressure video? I know I sound like one of those whiny LJ people, but everyone knows what happened to my computer.
Under Pressure is a Queen/David Bowie song that Michael Cerveris and Adam sang together. There's video footage of it, and it's hilarious because they're very likely drunk.
I believe he's singing it in your avatar photo (or at least it's from the same concert).
That is AWESOME. Is that the same song that Vanilla Ice stole? Hahah, Adam drunk. As I look at my photo, I am wondering what in the WORLD he is doing with his hand...
Heh, see a couple of posts above. Not bad, but my mom always makes shopping a horrible experience (she manages to contradict every single thing I say), and honestly I'm still bummed out over my date. I feel so guilty thinking that, but I built up senior prom so much in my own mind and want some sort of dream date.
I think I know the one I want (it's $450 and I think my parents are going to have a heart attack), but I'm going to one more store tomorrow just to make sure I don't see anything I like more.
I'm going to be going out soon. One zip folder is uploading, but won't be finished before I leave. It'll take me some time for the rest, because there was a lot of rent press.
Dress shopping was a nightmare for me. I just... had no idea what I wanted when I set out looking, which made it kind of hard. And I was reluctant to make a decision, because I was afraid of finding something else I liked once I committed. Just my non-committal nature.
I've promised myself that I won't re-download all the Rent press video to my new computer. It's so tempting, but I'm making a conscious effort to only save stuff I actually watch multiple times (e.g. Under Pressure, heh) to my computer.
