Netflix

We signed up with Netflix yesterday. It turns out that we've been spending about $30 per month at Blockbuster Video since last December so the $20 per month at Netflix should actually save money.

The selection is great and they claim two-day shipping even out here in the boonies. We'll see how it works out.

If you're not familiar with Netflix, the deal is that you can have three dvds checked out at any time. When you finish one, mail it back (postage paid) and when they receive it they'll ship out another movie from your queue right away. For $20 per month. It's great for people watching a lot of movies or stuck with late fees all the time. Competition is heating up in the space and I'm curious to see if they'll survive.

Salads are healthy

McDonald's salad may be fattier than burgers. Unbelievable. There is no truth in the corporate world any more. Just PR.
