Okay, you left coast, you right coast, and you in-betweeners better get busy.  You can't expect all us mid-Atlantic people to do all of the work.

Goddam! I wish I were not so technically challenged.  The DVD player is on but nothing's playing.  I don't know if it's damaged, I've connected the cable incorrectly, or if i'm missed doing something.  I hate it.

Shit.

You sound like me. Wish I could help. But I doubt I'd be any help.

Wednesday afternoon greetings!  Richard's GI procedures are complete with clear reports on both.  We are home, he's had a sandwich, and is watching War Games.


Great news!

Thanks, DR TCB!

Larry, did you say that you got a multi-region Blu-ray player, or is it just a region-code free DVD player?  I have a multi-region Blu-ray player and on mine, the DVDs from different regions automatically play without resetting the region.  To play Blu-ray discs from different regions (A, B, or C), however, I have to hit certain buttons on the remote to set the specific region.  Is that the same for your player?  Maybe the player is set for the wrong region and you just need to change it. 

Just a thought.

I spoke to Joshie and he suggested I replace the cables: the yellow and white look exactly the same.  That did provoke the DVD screen on the TV to light up for a second, but nothing plays. Most frustrating.

DR George, yes, that is the same as my region-free blu-ray.  The question is, if a US Blu-Ray is Region A, what the hell do you hit for a non blu-ray  region 1 or 2 DVD?

On mine, I don't need to do anything for DVDs.  It's automatic.  It's only Blu-rays that I need to enter the code with the remote. :-\

Then mine should have played at once, so i am completely flummoxed and need to wait for Joshie to decide when the time is good for him to pay me a visit.

I may spend some time tonight with the instructions which always seem to need a translation back to Japanese or whatever and then retranslated into English by someone with a fair for the language.  I figure at this point i can't hurt anything.

I think I have probably milked this time change business for all the possible posts.  But that won't stop me from using more.  A post is a post.

We will probably be off the ship by 10:00 on Sunday, so we will have a full day.

DR Jane I did not go out to dinner yesterday.  I did go out on the weekend (my niece had swim team yesterday and really didn't want to miss it).

Watching your niece compete sounds like a fun birthday to me.

She didn't have a meet just regular practice. And I didn't go. :)

The muscle on my right top back/neck has been bothering me a lot the past 2 days. So i was just in bed.

Thanks, DR ChasSmith!

He wanted a cheeseburger right afterward and we just had homemade chicken pie for dinner.  And leftover Jello...
