Why you need a good screwdriver...

I don't want to say something stupid here, but I take a chance:

isn't there a tiny tiny hole somewhere on the face of your DVD player? If so, you can use an unfolded paper clip through that tiny tiny hole to press the release button for the DVD.

It's not always there, and not always working. But it's worth a try...

Enjoy 24!

Too late! The stupid thing wasn't working anyways. It would play part of one scene and then stop. Sometimes it would start again. Sometimes not.

Thanks for the tip, though. I'm going to go look for that tiny tiny hole on the face of my new DVD player. You may have spared the life of one machine. Thanks for the 411! L.

PS: The T2 DVD is fine.

Thanks goodness - there's nothing like that first scene where Linda H is doing chinups!

I'm sayin'.

Oh, my, indeed.....

And let us not forget the chin-up scene in Aliens. Unfortunately that chickie got killed off in the first 10 minutes.

ahhhh....I'd forgotten about her! Thanks for the memory! Much as I love the Ripley character, I just have a heck of a time watching scary monsters. Will replay happy scenes in my own head rather than rent it!

Ah yes, they say the good always die young.

And let us not forget H. Swank in Million Dollar Baby.

But I don't need upper body strength to ride, right? That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Hellllloooooooooooooo.....

PUSHUPS, ladies. Start easy, on your knees if you have to. Work up to sets of 20. This single exercise transformed my arms into what DH now calls the best looking part of my body.

Easier than chinups, lotsa bang for the buck.
