The movies-by-mail dilemma
Posted by RandomRage | Filed under Movies
I sincerely need help with this problem, and I hope reaching out to the depths of the internets can help me. We’re talking a Sophie’s Choice-caliber problem here, people: I am currently signed up for both major movies-by-mail programs, and I need to cancel one.

None of that cheesy grandma furniture. 32″ LCD HDTV…although everything is stretch-o-vision, I can tolerate that…for one night, anyway. Large work desk, comfy chair…twenty foot ceiling for crying out [...]
