Same here. Forget if it was Sharp or Sanyo or whatever "S" brand not Sony, but I remember it had the olympic sponsor sticker. Couple years later, they sprung the $700 or so for a Sony Betamax that had all kinds of cool editing effects.

I think this is it... Sanyo 4500 Betacord:

I think ours was a Sanyo, but definitely not the same model. It might have been bought a year later but still had the logo.

So Chick-fil-A is coming out with a Spicy Chicken Sandwich

http://www.getspicychicken.com/

I think that looks spectacular

Any chance it's actually, you know, spicy?

Almost certainly not, but let's not quibble here

Looking at buying one of ZWR's Wertz Revolution Tees for the BSG 6/26 game. Probably gonna go with the American Apparel one of the generic Tee, but I have a question.

Due to the hipster influence in American Apparel clothing, are the sizes to be believed? I usually order a Large and just have done with it. Anyone familiar enough with the AA shirts to let me know if I should bump to XL?

Purple is going to be 16 years old in a few weeks. It might be my favorite album from that era.

Spicy Chicken sandwich from Chick-Fil-A: great news!

Sanyo Beta VCRs: I thought only Sony could make Beta? Was it not a proprietary format? We had only Beta VCRs in my home until like 1992 or so. When my parents finally got a DVD player (2002), it replaced a Beta VCR in their entertainment center. They still have a functional one at their beach condo.

sizes run true. but any sort of washing and it will shrink roughly a size and a half. the material is real thin, too.

I think other companies had to pay a license fee to Sony in order to make Beta VCRs, forcing the price up and ultimately being part of the reason for Beta's demise.

I'm the happiest camper on Earth. After months of stressing out to the point of sleepless nights, and then screwing something up where I might have been out 1500 now and paying 550/month, my student loan situation (60K) is finally resolved to where I'm on the IBR plan and will be paying about 115/month (amounts will go up somewhat if I get a better job, but will stay reasonable) for 25 years and then it all goes away. This is practically making it so college + grad is costing the same as just college. I love big government right now.

No, I'M the happiest camper on Earth. I just realized that my midterm tomorrow is open-book. I had no idea, and was stressing on how I was going to get up to snuff on everything by tomorrow morning.

Where's that strip club thread?

Be careful, I hear they angry up the blood and make things look really punchable.

I need help. Which of the following two radio commentaries are least likely to make me stab my ears with my mark-up pens?

TB vs NYY (TB radio feed)
Min vs Bos (Min radio feed)

I can't listen to a brewers vs pirates game, because I'll fall asleep on my proofs, and mets vs nationals is right out.

Your advice greatfully received.

TB v NYY, root against the Yankees so we can face TB again in 2010.
