> > These complaints about video rental pricing are kind of surprising me - if only because every video store in my area charges four dollars a day. Yep - four dollars for one day. The video games are five dollars for three days. And there isn't a single Blockbuster to be seen within miles.

Such as it is. I think the selection of video games available in my town is about... two. Yep. They have three copies of Mortal Kombat 375,037,283.681 (or whatever), and a copy of Super Mario 64 that's been rented so many times it comes in a little Zip-Loc bag to keep all the pieces together.

I don't think the people who run the video stores around here can *spell* DVD, much less rent them.

> Well, once you got through to the video store, you didn't get videos, not 'less you were rich! You got slides. Of snow. Vast fields of snow.

Hey! Kinda like watching "Manos: The Hands of Fate!" Only I bet the acting's better in the slides.
