Blu Ray players have come down quite a bit in price so I’m thinking of getting myself one for Christmas. Do you have one? Would you recommend it? Are the streaming options (like Netflix) worth it? Really, really worth it? See, my cable modem is downstairs. I can’t see running an ethernet cable upstairs but I do have WiFi. I’m just not that certain that it is worth the bother or cost (for either one).
I loved the Muppets when I was a kid. I don’t remember ever seeing this bit before but I love it.
Every year I count how many kids (and not so kids) come to the door trick-o-treating. I only count the ones that put a bag out asking for candy.
We were off to a slow start this year but things have picked up quite a bit. So far the count is at 86 give or take say 5 that I may have counted twice.
No, we don’t have that many kids in my neighborhood. Each year we have kids driven in from other neighborhoods.
UPDATE: The final count was 115. Definitely the cutest had to be the 3 year old superman twins.
I keep getting calls from (407) 000-0000 on my cell phone. I have never answered and I never will, but it is beginning to annoy me.
First off, I don’t answer my cell phone if I don’t know the number calling. I quit answering when I didn’t know the number years ago because when I first got my number I kept getting calls from people trying to reach the previous number or sell me stuff. I figure if the caller really wants to talk to me they will leave a message.
I’m never going to know who the 000-0000 number is because I will never answer the phone and they will never leave a message.
It’s probably a telemarketer or someone vishing. Vishing is phone based phising where someone calls you or you get a recorded message that tries to get you to give up personal information.
I’m not interested in buying anything from a telemarketer nor do I plan to give personal information out over the phone to someone I don’t know. If the 000-0000 caller is in either group than they are wasting their time on me.
Another possibility is that the person is using the internet to call me. I don’t think this is likely, though, because if it was someone I knew they would leave a message.
Anyway, if you ever get a call from any area code 000-0000 then don’t answer. It’s 90% likely that the caller wants to sell you something or steal your identity.
