We watched most of Sinbad before the player started screwing up, but it's royally screwing up at this point. We've cleaned the DVD player and more than one DVD, and now Flar is focusing on the transport control option buttons. Here's hoping he can get it to work.
Meanwhile, I've read email, and now I'm going to start reading everyone's LJs that I've missed for the past couple of weeks. Eventually, I'll get around to writing about my Christmas "holidays".
