My day was great. I spent some bucks on fishing gear, and my wife bought
me some new "resort" clothes for my trip next week.
I spent the afternoon with Mrs. H shopping for a stand for our new HDTV as
we will be giving our old 36" RCA (1994 vintage) cathode ray and stand to
our daughter since receiving our new 46" Sony HDTV.

The payoff was a great shrimp and crap dinner followed by a movie on the new
TV.

BTW: Time Warner sucks big time as it does not appear to recognize HDMI.
Although the S-Video input works on our box/set the HDMI input does not,
despite swapping out TW HD boxes, HDMI cables and trying various settings on
the new Sony.



JimH, is there a reason you must tell us for at least the third time that
you're giving your 16 year-old TV to your daughter?

We all believe you are a most generous person!



I can't figure out what else he would have done with the TV, a 12 yr old
non digital, standard format TV has no value.

My math sucks!

Actually, if one has cable the company will rent a box that will enable the
use of an analog TV when we go all digital next year. So, that TV will
still be have significant value.

Maybe about $4.37.
