Yeah, good luck with that. I've read that it's the music licensing that's preventing a DVD release. They don't want to pay the fees to license all the songs used in the episodes and feel that replacing them with generic music would spoil the show.

Another win for copyright!

Re: Snow

oh sooo true BUT, I wouldn't mind the use of alternative music or even no music...just to have the series.
I could watch a channel that shows Cold Case, but that means I'd have to have my son attach the OTA device and start using the controller ! nope...I'm happy just watching my dvds on my dvd player attached to my tv...otherwise switching controllers is just 1 big PITA to use

Re: Snow

not a whiner...arthritis in both knees, in my tailbone, and since 2/10/14...recovering from a broken left leg (first ever broken bones in my life)...which has also added more arthritis to more areas of my spine When the weather changes, I can barely walk...which makes my life even more unbearable and I'm only 67 *sighs*

Re: Snow

My son comes over with the truck that has a plow on the front...does the driveway, the neighbors driveway,etc...he will also use my snowblower for the sidewalks (I have a corner house)...his oldest son(20yr old on 12/26) will also come over and use the snowblower . I'm not an outdoors-type person so I never had to do any mowing (grass or snow)

Re: Snow

*thumbs up* the City comes here, during the winter, maybe 2x every 2 weeks or so...plowing all the street snow up all the driveways...even while the guys are actually shoveling/snowblowing the crap at the same time Also the 'ruts' left by regular vehicles makes it even harder to get out onto the streets...so I don't even plan on going anywhere !

Re: Snow

According to the Amazon.com.uk - there are 18 sets, available on Amazon...if you have a Region 0 player(which I don't have ) ...but they just released S1 & 17 - the American version - which I've already watched. I like forensics tv shows too .

Re: Snow

The only place that sells Region 0 (region-free) dvd players is Amazon...none of the Big-Box stores around here will sell them ...I know about unlocking codes 'hack' for players, but it seems that everyone of my players that I've had just won't 'unlock' Also, the cost of 1 of these players is way too expensive.

According to the weather-guessers, we're due a good dumping of fluffy rain tonight and Sunday to the tune of 6-7 inches. And temps are a good 12-15 degrees below "normal". Meh.

Week 1 of contact lenses

Week 1 of contact lenses went ok. There were two days I went with glasses because I irritated the eye because I had a hard time removing the lens one night and I prodded the eye too hard.

Otherwise everything is fine. I go to the eye doc on Wednesday for the follow-up.

I don't know where I'll buy the contacts yet.

College Applications...

I am not sure if I am one of the youngest people in DSLReports, but being a high school senior, it's already stressful with the tremendous amount of work, and now with the college applications... I just want to get it over with.
