It's A Phlegm Filled Thursday!

Good morning.

A little bummed out today. A friend dropped dead of a heart attack yesterday. Although a smoker and somewhat over weight, he was only 54.

Whoopie, I get to have my teeth cleaned today. After that, I am going to scoot out and doing a few errands as 15-30cm (6-12in) of snow will be coming down over the course of 12 hours.

Hope you're feeling better Greenie.

Have a great day.

I'm all set for outputting video and audio to my TV from my Mac. The actual problem is that if you have the DVD-only version of Netflix you can't access the streaming content at all. It doesn't even show up when you search for House of Cards. All I see in the search results is the original BBC version.

I've been considering adding a streaming account from Netflix or HuluPlus to replace some of my Comcast programming, but the things I want to watch on HBO, SHO, Max, and Starz. aren't available that way. And since I regularly wind up with a 90% full DVR already I don't need more things I don't have time to watch now. I guess I'll just wait and see if they have that one on DVD eventually.

Sorry to hear that Art. Never easy losing a friend.

It's not available on Netflix but seems to be available as a torrent download from the official site which has more information about the film.

I just searched for it on my TiVo & it's not on Hulu or Amazon either

Sounds VERY interesting.
