With Blockbuster (Really all video stores) on the verge of going out of business, late fees are probably the strongest source of income they have. I think they got the business model from the Mob

On demand from the cable company would be a lot cheaper:)

Offer to buy the CD instead. It would be cheaper that the late fees.

That made me bust out laughing, lol. Now how do you hook your computer to the t.v? I'm interested in this.

Just need to make sure the video card on your computer can push the signal. After that connect a VGA cable from your computer to the monitor. Once connected hit Fn F(could be F4, F7, or F8 depending on the computer but it will either have a picture opf a monitor or be label CRT/LCD)
If your TV doesn't have a VGA connection, you can purchase a "whip" that will convert VGA to component.

Then you will need to hook up the Audio, just like an IPod take it out of the headphones jack.

You lost me at video card. Guess I'll watch t.v. the old fashioned way. On the t.v.

Most computers today can handle it. Your TV probably came with a VGA cable, so you can test it that way

You forgot the part about downloading the illegal content.

all you need to do is hook your moniter cable to the back of your tv... if your tv is new it should have a jack. thats it. oh yeah your video card in your computer must have a coax jack so you can transfer the sound to your recever. i could build you a computer with everything you need for around $250-$300. thats your cable bill in a few months

No you don't...you need better healthcare....but at 22 years old, unless you you are very intelligent and have a killer job with massive bennies....perhaps you should have waited to have children

:dunno:

I have a cousin that is 25, he works for NASA as a software fire wall creator and makes nearly 85k a year.
He could probably get away with starting early.
I am not quite there yet at 44, but I was smart enough to wait until I was settled into life myself before bringing more into this world.

My union benefits are out of this world....but it took 25 years to get here. ;)
My second child birth bill was $10....the co-pay.


....back on topic however...my wife is notorious for late fees.
And guess who has to pay them?

Good luck with that, I just journeyed out in June from the plumbers union to no job! Five years of school done, now I can't do ANYTHING plumbing related without their approval for another five years to repay the schooling. Not even work in the plumbing dept of home depot! Or I could pay them $36,xxx and move on. Just saying it's a long road with no promisses right now till things pick up. IF they ever go back to the way they were. I'd be happy with a $16.00 job living in Kentucky, thats right around what I make on unemployment here in Chicago and somehow I have made it work, mostly thanks to my wife contributing.

You said "anything you want for free."

I took that to mean movies and the like.
