I like the Vizio and Samsung line as well as LG. What do you guys think?

My TV downstairs is a 42" which will stay down there. Unless of course I get a bigger TV, then I'm switching it up.
Sharp, Vizio, Panasonic, and Samsung are good from working with optics. For sure though get LED and a 1080p; I got a Sony and it pretty good too!

Im a Panasonic user, Ive had nothing but good luck with them from the 3 TVs in my house to the one I had in my G35. Always liked their screen and picture output, my mother has since bought 2 and adding a third shortly after her 2nd JVC had started giving her problems.

Merry Xmas guys. I can't belive I've been gone almost 5 years now. The girls are doing well. Teagan got her port out earlier this month and Ryleigh has another year of treatment left. We just found out that Andrea is pregnant. As Aaron would say I slipped one past the goalie. And Dave everyone knows scotch is where its at.

I got that. Just wondering why some people consider a cognac a bourbon but not all bourbons are cognacs.

Well I'm home finally, long day, hope everyone is enjoying their xmas, and maybe we should start discussing the next winter meet in mid January. Figured that would be enough time to get something in stone after the crazy holidays

Safe and sound back in the house, eh?

I think the mid January idea is a good one. We'll have to think of what to do next.

MTU problem. Well, it was MTU. Now it's something else. DAmmit!

Should've got a PS3 j/k


Well doing my new years resolution a little early, getting back into the working out mode again. Went to the GNC today picked up a couple things and I hope to be able to gain some weight/muscle. I want to gain 10 pounds in a month. My weight right now is only 150 but I still have this high metobolism even at the close age of 30. By summer time I want to be atleast 165-170. Wish me luck..

Wow, I remember when I was 150. I also went on a wt gain diet. Been pretty much the same wt now for about 20 years. At least it's been the same waist size for pants.

Target has a 39" LED with 2 HDMI ports for sale. I think it's like $300.
