I am trying to figure out how to get my dvd player from pc to TV with cc (closed caption supported) instead use the cc on my computer but to use cc on tv instead, I've done that before... but the tv seems not getting feeds from s-video connection.. i tired all dvd's but cc only works if i turn on from the computer instead, i want to use TV's because its more bold and easier to read.. I seem can't find to make computer give cc feeds though s-video to tv.

I spent 710 bucks today getting a water pump, new brakes/rotors, timing belt, tuneup, and seals on my 96 Jetta (all the work was needed, several gearhead friends have been on my case for a while). My question is, what is the typical bill for some of these things?

I have been looking to get a decent HDTV for a while now. Does anyone have an opinion on which one is "shack worthy" ? I honestly would not like to spend more than $2,000 but if something for a little bit more is really worth the value, I would definately be open to options =D

I saw three shows today...
1) Mac King Comedy Magic show - Michael Holly filled in for him. The show was about an hour. The show was "ok". Was it worth it? Maybe... depends on how you liked it jokes. Some you had to think about, others were easy to get. I still would like to see Mac King to see what he is like.
2) Tournament of Kings at Excalibur - This show was full of cheese but it was kind of fun. There is something to be said about cheering for your own "fake knight" and booing for the bad guys. The food wasn't that good, but the bad guy was a riot. I would say if you have already seen Medieval Times than you have seen this show. They are similar but not quite the same. I wish booze was included in this show. Sucks to have to pay more for a few beers. Medieval Times includes it..... by the way, this resort should be called "Camelot" and not Excalibur the sword... sheesh..
3) Cirque Du Soleil - "Ka" - Holy crap. This has to be one of the best shows I've ever seen. A cross between Final Fantasy, Anime, acrobatics, martial arts, and..._______ something else. Someone else fill in the blanks. It was $150.00 per person in the seats we sat in but well worth it. The theatre at the MGM Grand is incredible. When you first walk in, you are like "what the....". Feels like something goth... Dark City perhaps? I dunno... The music was fantastic as well. The first show in my life that ever exceeded my expectations.
I did my first Oxygen bar today as well. After doing it, I felt like I had slept for a few hours and was wide awake. It was time for more drinks. :)
