Picked up a copy of the “Next Karate Kid” at the local used book/dvd/music store. Haven’t watched it yet. Maybe some time this week… (Also picked up three of the ‘Noir’ DVD’s. There apparently are a total of 26 episodes scattered across 7 DVD’s. I need #’s 2,5,6,7)

The log cabin sold… so after paying a few bills and Uncle Sam (when I finally get my share of the money) I MIGHT have enough to get a new tv (I was looking at wide screen/HD televisions in “Best Buy” yesterday… I’m thinking something between 32″ and 37″ would do it (Anything bigger wouldn’t fit in my apartment. Any smaller and I don’t gain anything size-wise).
The only issue(s)… my other stereo/home entertainment equipment. Even the newest piece (my “cheap” home theater receiver) predates the HD standard and supports older video output standards (RCA, s-video, composite video).
My DVD player is even older…
So all that would have to be replaced or the tv I get would have to support them…
The cable box is easy… I just call up the cable company and order one (for a couple more dollars a month).
And I want whatever I get to work with the PS3 I plan to get when it comes out next summer…
We’ll see…
