Do you stream it or watch a DVD?  From what I've seen online, it's only available on streaming services now.

Heck, I've had a DVD for decades.

(Same deal with A Charlie Brown Christmas and How the Grinch Stole Christmas.)

I haven't had anything to play a DVD on for some years (though I think I did once buy an external one I could plug into my computer -- not sure where it is now).

It struck me as odd that a local Walmart was selling DVDs, but they were no longer selling anything to play them on. You can get players--where else?--on Amazon. In the past I've bought DVD players at Walmart.

I can't remember now if it was on Amazon or eBay where I saw devices like I used to have where you could play VHS tapes as well as DVDs.

I have a small flat-screen TV that has a built-in DVD player. I keep forgetting to use it to make sure it still works. I don't particularly like it because you put the DVDs in vertically.

I ran into Santa at the grocery store a couple of Christmas seasons ago. He and I were both trying to find fresh dill in the produce department. He had a big white beard and was dressed in a bright red jacket with fuzzy white trim, red pants and red hat. I let him ask the staff person for the dill because I figured they wouldn't say no to Santa. I kept calling him Santa, even though he had not introduced himself. He asked if I had anything to play a DVD on and I said no, which was too bad because he had a pocket full of CDs of Christmas music he'd recorded and was handing out.

Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!

I hope everyone is doing well!!

Been a bit busy on my end here.   Last week, my coworker was out on vacation, so I had to cover all my clients, plus hers, plus train a new guy on how to do a specific report.

This week, my coworker is back so the workload has lessened, thankfully!

On Thursday I went out with my friends to see the concert "Legends - 4 Queens, 1 Stage".   Live performances by Gladys Knight, Stephanie Mills, Patti LaBelle, and Chaka Khan.  They were all amazing, the show was a knockout.  My opinion, the best show was by the closer, Chaka Khan.

This week we also had fire inspections and work on the gas meter at my complex, so I had to make sure the apartment was in order, for when people came in.  The plus side is that my time this weekend was freed up, so I spent it decorating for Halloween.



I've posted pics in the Halloween thread, if anyone cares to see them.

Chuck, that concert sounds fantastic! I'll bet those ladies had everyone on their feet and moving to the music!

I have built-in Halloween decorations with my front-yard garden featuring pumpkins, squash and Hopi corn with deep purple kernels! Beautiful and a bit spooky!
