Netflix chart updated
It was an interesting month for Netflix. They shipped every disc to me the same day they received one from us. There was one disc that we received scratched, so we asked for a replacement. That got to us quickly, and it too was scratched. Ugh. Always always always check your discs when you receive …
Netflix Stats update for February 2006
Netflix didn’t do too badly last month. 13 movies, the quickest turnaround was 5.10 hours, the slowest turnaround was 29.55 hours, with an average of 10.87 hours.

Netflix is dying….
Since early July, Netflix has been slowing down how quickly they process the sending and receiving of new DVDs from my queue. Historically (over a year now) I would send a DVD back, get an email in the morning, and then get an email that same afternoon letting me know my next DVD was being …
Ticket Prices
Every time in my life that I’ve gone to the movie theater and paid for tickets, all I had to do was go to the window, say “2 tickets please,” and then I’d pay some money. And I’d be given two tickets. I went to the theater a few days ago with Erica, a nine …
Review: Fiddler on the Roof (1971)
Filmed on location in Eastern Europe, this 1971 musical based on Sholem Aleichem’s stories was a smash on Broadway, Fiddler on the Roof is a true crowd-pleaser. Israeli actor Topol mesmerizes as Tevye, humble father of three strong-willed daughters in the Russian village of Anatevka. His self-imposed task: Preserve Jewish heritage at all costs. A …
