I totally missed out on this convo.

At this one place I used to live at, we had the same thing happen. The tv, stereo, and the amplifier's would turn on and off randomly.

Ill tell ya a few stories.

Laying on the couch with the g/f (at that time) watching tv. Tv changed channels.
Sheldon says "why the hell did ya change the channels Tina?"
Tina says "the remotes are on the coffee table moron, I didnt change the channels"

Was very odd.

Next one was I was out at a g/f's house (different one) and came home. Buddy was looking at me like why did you do that? I just walked in the door, "why did I do what??

He was having a shower and cranked the tunes up. He said the music turned off, and someone went up the stairs, and he presumed it was me. He got out of the shower, got dressed and came looking for me to BS with me, and I wasnt there. He went upstairs, and just got to the bottom of the stairs when i walked in the door from outside.

Another time there were a few of us upstairs just sitting around BS'n, and my buddy had his stereo pounding, listening to ... Strawberry wine by deanna carter. All of a sudden in the middle of the song, his cd player stopped, skipped cd's to cd number 5 (deana carter was number three in the tray) which was white zombie, skipped to track 2 (supercharger heavan) and played that.

Last story that I can think of off the top of my head that involved the electronics, I was talking on the phone, telling this chick that sometimes the tv would turn on and off on its own and blah blah blah. Sure enough boom, tv turns off. I go turn it on. about 5 minutes later it turns off again. So I leave it off, and wouldnt ya know it but about 5 minutes later, the tv turns on.

Now Im not a guy that would bullsh17 about stuff like that either, it all happened (plus a few other weird non electronic related things) and was very weird.

While Jeremy got his picture taken standing in front of the horse, (good pic by the way) I cant help but notice the please do not climb the fence sign.

Guess where I would have been in that photo

Yup, climbing the fence haha.

From where I am sitting, it looks like it says "Please do climb on fence".

I have a gazillion pictures, but only a few of me. The ones I showed you guys are quite literally the only ones I have. I have a billion of everyone else though. I usually hide from the camera.

I respectfully disagree. Jeremy is way better looking. I do prefer the shorter hair on him though, I have to say. Also I think he should wear a cowboy hat and belt buckle at all times...

case in point:

does anybody know how to convert .VOB file to a WMV, or something similar that I could upload to my webshots. I have been wanting to post the video of my daughters Cheer competition. We got the DVD and I have ripped and saved the file, but Photo bucket or webshots does not support that file type.

any suggestions?
