I’ll be keen to read your report on this, Gravy. Did you upgrade your monitor as well?

I've had a hi-def TV for a long time and HD satellite dish, I just never find much to watch... I do have a few "classic movie" channels in HD, but they rarely show much of interest.

I'm getting Blu Ray very soon. Especially after seeing a 2 disc version of Casino Royale!

Blockbuster Video are selling Blu Ray players at £150 each and three movies to go with it. I'm not sure if the three pictured were the actual three, but I wouldn't mind one little bit because they are Angels and Demons, Gladiator and The Fast and the Furious 4.

These three would be three of the selections in the months to come.

The first time I saw Adventures Of Robin Hood was about a year and a half ago, but i've seen it about a half a dozen times since then, I even saw thbr last hour last night. I bet than puppy looks great in the new format. One of the most colourful films I've ever seen.
I'm envious! I bet the same could be said of the new Wizard Of Oz coming out Tuesday.

I see that my BlackBerry has a mind of it's own when I drink Yuengling Traditional Lager!

You, Sir, are fortunate that Yuengling is distributed in your state. I have to wait for our infrequent trips to PA to pick some up.

The Black & Tan is absolutely the best beer Yuengling makes. There other beers are not nearly as flavorful IMHO. But then I prefer dark beers.

I also prefer dark beer JG, although I'll go with an amber as a lighter alternative.
About a month ago I bought a 4 pack of Samuel Adams Imperial Stout. It was 9.2 %, and was so dark that I couldn't see light through it while it was in my beer mug.
Maybe this thread's title should be changed to Black N Blu.
