We'll fuck standing and we'll fuck then lying, if they had wings we'll fuck them flying, when they are dead and long forgotten we'll dig them up and fuck them rotten.
Sometimes I feel like such a fucking dumbass. I got a new receiver today, and for some unfathomable reason I can't get my TIVO to work with it. It worked fine with my last one. I've stared at the directions for at least two hours. I've switched the wires, even though I knew that wouldn't help. The television works fine. The DVD player works fine. The CD player works fine. The remote control is coded properly. The TIVO won't work. It just makes that "ding" noise and . . . nothing.
grr! frustration! I stare and I stare and I read the directions and I can't figure this out!
Well, that's what happens when you let a woman do a mans job...
Ha! Well my husband never wanted such a huge, five-piece/speaker stereo in the first place. I wanted all of this, and the receiver finally gave out this morning. It's been threatening to for months. So I just don't want to put this on him. I wanted it, so I should set it up.
And you're right about the instructions, especially the trouble-shooting page: "problem: no sound; solution: plug in stereo." Seriously. That's their best advice!
lol! No, not really. He's just not really into "stuff." He didn't want TIVO either. Hell, if it was up to him, we'd not have cable. But to me, a stereo like this is essential. He'd be happy with a little boom box from the 90s. Just like we had before I got this system about a year ago. :-)
I'm thinking of just hooking the TIVO back up to the TV and just be done with it. I'll miss the surround sound, but what the hell? I'll have it for music and DVDs. And I still have to hook up the phonograph, the cassette player, and the equalizer! weep.
