Long Weekend Chum Bucket

by craig on Nov 28, 2008 10:23 AM EST in News Comment 4 comments

Seeing how there isn't much going on with the Fish and considering I really need to write an article I promised someone I would deliver about a month ago, we get the long version of Chum Bucket. Which ain't necessarliy bad.

So this is the usual Weekend Chum Bucket with an extra day included. You know how this goes, Chum Buckets are a completely open thread where you can discuss anything that is to your mind. Whether that be Marlins baseball, pottery, the proper way to attach christmas lights to the roof of a house, which LCD TV is the best one on the market or whatever else comes to mind. Basically, anything goes.

Speaking of LCD TVs, I reason to believe that my TV isn't long for this world and I'm looking to replace it with a new HD LCD and would be more than happy to hear any suggestions that you may have in this area.

If you are getting a long weekend, and I hope you are, the important thing is to kick-back and enjoy the time off. After all, that is what it is for.

In other words, Have a Great extended Weekend!

re: LCD HDTV

I mean, it’s easy to get sucked into days of online reviews, comparison shopping, etc.

But if you’re just looking for a nice rule of thumb on brands from a non-videophile/Consumer Reports-esque overall package w.r.t. price angle, Samsung for LCD (unless you’re tight on budget, then go Westinghouse) is a safe bet…Panasonic if you consider plasma at all…Sony and Pioneer (for plasma) go in the generally best rated but not worth the price difference category

I'm just going to keep waiting

until the price falls into my range. By 2015, I should have a great TV.

I have a samsung LCD that I bought at Brand Smart

Couldn’t be happier.

Great sound, great picture. I really had no clue what I was looking for when I went and the guy explained to me that you want an LCD if you watch a lot of sports, so that’s what I went with. It probably didn’t hurt that I was suppose to get last years model and when they brought it out of the warehouse section, they gave me this years… My brother bought an Olivia (?) and it is an awful picture
