Why did you guys pre-order through Amazon (or wherever)your DVD package(knowing you'd have to wait a few days for shipping) when all you have to do is go down to the Wal-Marts of the world when it will be in store on the 9th and buy it instantly ? Looks like we have a lot of Fredo's out there...

Thanks for the advice, CamillusDon; but I'm not buying the DVD anyway...don't have a player!! I think several have answered as to how ordering from Amazon ended up saving time AND money. Go for it guys...you've convinced me! Apples

Capisco. I carry the same cross, and I'm not even an English major! After years of seeing/hearing bad grammar I've come to accept it as "English" since proper grammar seems to be in the minority. In fact, I've actually caught myself being guilty of it due to environmental exposure! Sad... JG  PS But even worse than an English major, I was a Psych major  (although I never acted like one, and always hated talking to them :D) [ October 11, 2001: Message edited by: J Geoff ]
