Big News of the Blockbuster Variety

For those of you who like us, don't subscribe to cable television (thus saving anywhere from $40-$60 a month), have I got news for you.

Blockbuster now has this incredible deal where most movies are only 99 cents and here's the kicker: you can rent one disc at a time of television series for 99 cents as well. So we can now "Get our LOST on" anytime we want, uninterrupted with commercials, one disc at a time (a mere 4 episodes) for only 99 cents.

Neither Caleb nor myself have ever seen "LOST" so that was our natural choice, and let me tell you.... we are hooked. That is the best dang show. We quickly watched all four episodes of season one disc one last night (yes we watched it for 4 straight hours) and we are going back for discs two and three tonight (yes that will be 8 straight hours.... we don't care.... we're getting our LOST on). We will hopefully pause from our LOST viewings at 8pm tomorrow night to catch what looks to be like a very intense Desperate Housewives.

Oh- I just took a Desperate Housewives Quiz about "which housewife I am" and it turned out that I am Bree, which totally makes sense due to my phenomenal abilities to whip up such desserts as the infamous razz-a-matazz and now the Holiday Tradition of Amazing Cake.

One last thing, we don't have cable, but we do have some high-power rabbit ears that pick up ABC 33/40 from Birmingham, AL. Since our choices for news is WCBI (agh!) or WTVA (horrors!) we now watch the Birmingham channel (shout-out to Brenda Ladun!)
Anyway, Natalee Holloway is from Birmingham, so of course the news station would be following the story closely. Well to my surprise, they SENT A REPORTER to ARUBA! I quit the Biz too early! 33/40 sent a reporter to Aruba, as if CNN reporters weren't getting the inside scoop. Is it just me or is that crazy! OK, that's all for now.
