Everyone I know sees new releases via Netflix or sometimes at our second run theater. For older films, or actually buying DVDs, I'm seeing more and more surfacing at our local used bookstores.

Ebay is a squirrelly site....they'll end your auctions if you get ANY complaint, and won't bother validating, they're just paranoid.

Wednesday Night Out

We can meet in the hotel lobby or at Dinosaur BBQ and then go a few blocks into Armory Square for a trip to Soundgarden.
