mikailborg: I can't even remember what event I was attending, but I must have been taking it seriously. (orbiting)

See if you can find him on the monitor

Oh, speaking of Freecycling, I've got a flatscreen TV in the apartment that neither Starr nor I want to carry downstairs, much less haul out to the house. It's a 27" (or 29", I can't remember) Philips HD television that handles 1080i (and I think 1080p). It's got an HDMI input, S-Video and composite video on the side, and coaxial and 2 or 3 composite inputs in the back.

We bought it off the Philips website as a refurb for about $500. It came with a power board issue that would cause it to spontaneously turn off, but it could always be turned back on in 2 or 3 minutes or so, and the problem hasn't recurred in about 6 to 8 months. It's a flatscreen, not a flat panel, so it still has a nice heavy picture tube, and that's why I'm not interested in moving the thing. We have Craigslisted it, but everyone interested so far has been a no-show.

Anyone willing to come over and haul it off can have it for $200. We have two nice flat panel TVs that Starr's parents are leaving with us, and are planning to just buy our own flat panel when we move again.

Takers?
