I'm so relieved. I really
thought the new hard drive which is installed in my desktop week or
so ago was begin the malfunction when I try to watch some of the DVDs
my home health person brought over the other day. (See posting three
or four days ago). I did contact my son about the issue and he
indicated that perhaps I should try using the system with one of my
own DVDs which has worked. This was late Sunday night but he
volunteered to swing by the apartment early in the morning to drop
the computer off at PC laptops. The old computer switcheroo is the
last thing that I really want to do. Mark was also getting ready to
leave the area for a number of days towards the end of the week which
means getting of putting up the computer would be a real drag. So I
tried the option Mark suggested and dug up a copy of Dead Pool I
have recently viewed. I popped the DVD into the tray pushed at home
and sure enough the movie came up. I didn't necessarily like the
interface system used to play the DVD but it worked just fine. As I
said this is a great relief. Armed with this knowledge that I had a
working DVD player have begun to profile the rest of the stack of
DVDs that person brought over. Significant amount are operational
best kind of nice. I'm thinking the ones are not our hybrids or
DVD/Blu-ray. That's okay the DVDs are ones I'm most interested in any
way.
The
only problem about starting a project like this is the the high
probability of getting sucked into the movie on the DVD you are
proofing. A few minutes ago I stuck the Green Lantern tray
and soon I was getting sucked into the movie. As we all know Green
Lantern is from the DC
universe. It's not that I'm not DC hater I'm not. I mean when I was
growing up DC comics were about the only things out there so I
totally was into Superman, Batman and kind of Wonder Woman. However,
when I hit adolescence I soon got into Spiderman and the rest of the
Marvel universe and then that's all she wrote. So I really didn't
know much about the Green Lantern except for Donovan's short
reference in his song Sunshine Superman I
figured the Green Lantern had to be cool if Donovan referenced them.
I thought Donovan was a trip. I liked a few pieces of music that made
it to the radio, that he did especially Mellow Yellow I
sacrificed more than one summer afternoon stripping inside the
bananas trying to make the mythical drug. Didn't do anything for me
but gave me something to talk about. I've got the DVD in the tray
right now and I'm going to finish watching the movie as soon as I
finish this posting. In fact I'm so excited about even to this
posting short of the 500 words but I usually push myself to write or
maybe not…
