The VCR crashed. We haven't had a TV in our household for over twenty years. So we got my mom's old TV and NB's old VCR. We have been watching videos off and on since Christmas. On Saturday, I actually went to the video store and rented two movies. We watched Hook and enjoyed the rerun. I think we saw it at the movies.

At any rate, when I rewound the tape, the reject buttoned wouldn't work. Big Fred had to take the machine apart to get the tape out. Boy, what luck. Now we have to get a new VCR or VCR-DVD combination in order to see the other video.

I don't see it happening for a while. It will probably take another 20 years and then who knows what type of technology we will have. If we hold on to our VCR collection, they will be collectibles and we can make our fortune. OK, don't hold your breath.
