RCA Dual Format DVD Recorder w/ DivX, HDMI and HD Upconversion - $69.99
Hey, I admit I’m not what I used to be. But what VCR is? Time was, those were the three hottest letters in home entertainment. VCRs like me were electronics royalty, toasted everywhere from the White House to the house next door. I even heard about some teenage girl in North Philly trading her newborn baby for a VCR. Not that I endorse that kind of thing. Point is, we were hot. Everybody wanted a VCR. And we earned that respect. Back in my heyday, you could go out on a Thursday night and I’d have your whole NBC lineup waiting for you when you came home, from Cosby straight through to L.A. Law. Yeah, even Night Court. I had a strong stomach back then.
But you don’t want to hear some old coot grinding his tapeheads about the glory days. You kids today prefer something like this RCA DVD Recorder. No squeaky wheels or bulky cassettes with this little hotshot – just sleek, silent dual-format DVD+R/+RW and DVD-R/-RW action. Says here it can also do something called “DivX playback”. And this whole HD upconversion thing, with the HDMI cables and all that, that’s a young man’s game. Or so I assume, since I don’t know what any of it means. Sounds fancy, though.
Yeah, you enjoy your fancy RCA DVD Recorder with DivX and HDMI. But when you get tired of how easy and convenient it is to use, and how great the picture looks, remember your old pal the VCR. I’ll be there, spinning my capstans until they put me in a hole in the ground.

Columbia 5-Mile Handheld 2-way Radio 2-Pack
Ambystoma “Axolotl” Mexicanum looked out from his penthouse balcony, across the
vast field his illegal seaweed operation. There was a disturbance down below.
Axolotl lifted his half of the Columbia Black GMRS-15P 5
Mile Handheld 2-way Radio (2 Pack) to his lips.Down below his hired gun, Marcidus Psychrolutes, picked up his share of the Columbia Black GMRS-15P 5 Mile Handheld 2-way Radio (2 Pack) and listened. He and Axolotl had decided on which of the 15 channels would be their special channel. Channel 4, they had said in unison, and laughed as they shook hands in agreement. But that was long ago, as far away as the five miles back to that balcony from which Axolotl stood, and yet, the transmission was still in range. But strangely, Axolotl could hear nothing. He checked the battery level on the built in battery level indicator; everything was fine. Something was terribly wrong. Axolotl attacked the Columbia Black GMRS-15P 5 Mile Handheld 2-way Radio to his belt clip and took three quick steps toward his private staircase. But that was when he heard the sound of gunfire. Only one man was brave enough to storm Axolotl’s seaweed fortress. Kiwa Hirsuta.
Using the Columbia Black GMRS-15P 5 Mile Handheld 2-way Radio (2 Pack)’s ability to connect to other brands of radio, Axolotl and Marcidus evaded Kiwa Hirsuta and made it to safety. They smiled together as they shook hands and smoked a fine illegal cigar. One day, they swore, one day the mansion would be theirs again.

Excalibur BrewMaster
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Excuse me, can I have my breath back?
Unattainable Woman: Uh, what?
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Can I have my breath back? Because you just took it away.
Unattainable Woman: Oh, my God…you’ve got to be kidding me…
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Did somebody say kids? Because before we commit to having them, I think we should practice a lot first.
Unattainable Woman: Look, I’m meeting my boyfriend here, he’s a cop, and -
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: I’m not a cop, but I do know my way around a pair of handcuffs.
Unattainable Woman: Oh, gross…
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Hey, is that a Rusty Mill Nutmeg Stout? (turns slightly, fiddles furiously with his Excalibur BrewMaster) One of my favorites. Firm and hoppy, with a brisk finish.
Unattainable Woman: You don’t say? You seem to know a lot about beer.
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Yeah, well, it’s what I love. You name a beer, I’ll give you my individual take on it. I’m familiar with about 1,500 beers from around the world, along with lots of toasts, drinking games, jokes, hangover cures. I can even call you a cab if you need one.
Unattainable Woman: Well, you might as well finish my Rusty Mill Nutmeg Stout. I can’t stand it, and I hate to see it go to waste.
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Oh, uh, I was, uh, hoping we could find a more enjoyable way to swap spit, ha ha.
Unattainable Woman: Drink it first. Come on, you love it so much. Go ahead.
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: Uh, OK… (sips beer, immediately retches) Must be a bad batch or something…normally I can pound this stuff.
Unattainable Woman: You’re lying. You don’t really know anything about beer.
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: What do you mean? Hey, wait, don’t leave!
Unattainable Woman: I mean you’re a poseur. (heads for the exit) Goodbye.
Brian, or Kevin, or Some Name Like That: But, but, how did you know?
Unattainable Woman: (stops, turns back toward him, pulls something from her purse, mockingly waves her Excalibur BrewMaster at him, continues out the door)
