Season 2 of Burn Notice. I got the Blu-rays even though everything I read said the video quality wasn't as good as it should be, and that it wasn't worth the extra money over the DVDs. However, it was only $1 more than the DVD set going with used vs. used through third party sellers on Amazon.com. I'd agree that the quality is certainly lacking compared to other Blu-rays, but it's not exactly a high-budget series, and it's not one I care about so much that I need it to be pristine.

I'm finding the Used section of Amazon to be a great source of getting things, mainly CDs, at a good price.

Yeah, definitely. I'm probably split 50/50 between buying used and new now.

Yeah, even with the shipping added onto the used prices, you're more often than not still getting a better deal.

Yeah, and I'm in Washington, so I get charged sales tax if I buy directly from Amazon.com. Depending on what I'm buying, it might be cheaper to pay for shipping rather than sales tax.

Watching “The Partridge Family.” I completely forgot this scene. Partridge Family I love watching old shows because I barely remember them so it’s almost like seeing them for the first time again. I figure in a few more years my brain will be so addled I will be able to revisit them for the “first time” again.

they don't make 'em like they used to(re Farrah). I'm pretty sure the way they used to make them is still the most popular way.

Btw, Charles, I just got back from the west coast yesterday and spent a couple of days down in Washington State, I have to say you Washingtonians(?) are some of the nicest people I've met.
