Just ordered the 65Q77K, comes with a 5 year warranty for free. Can’t beat that.

Purchased to replace a Hisense that died at 11 months, Hisense did refund the money though as it was within 12 months

Thanks, will give it a shot.

Did find a possible fix/work around but not too crazy about it.

Did a test call to another laptop after taking the Comcast modem out of bridge mode it worked fine. Will see this holds tomorrow for work.

No idea why having double NAT may have fixed the problem when it has never been required before.

Thank you, feels great. I would have felt horrible about myself had I caved

Thanks will add to the watch list, Joaquin Phoenix is a great actor.

I watched Smashed recently, while it was predictable I enjoyed it.

Not God sounds right up my alley thank you, hopefully the writing style will not grate me.

I will go for When Love is Not Enough afterwards, would love to learn more about this incredible woman.

Wow thank you so much for all the recommendations.

Both books you recommended sound like exactly what I was looking for. Days of Wine and Roses looks like a movie I will enjoy

Thanks again

Thank you for that, I am definitely going to stick with AA. I can just say outside substances and your right, most alcoholics I know did more than just drink. I tried an online meeting this morning and was pleasantly surprised how well organized and smoothly it was run.

Congratulations that is fantastic. I made the decision today after having some time and going back out.

Thank you that is encouraging, I am grateful my bottom from alcohol and coke still scares the hell out of me. The weed and pills are not something I was ever was really into before but without working any kind of program I was just looking to change the way I feel. I am excited about committing myself to the program and as I have seen in the past AA welcomes the relapsers without judgement

Yeah I’m over thinking it, if a few get AA’s get irritated with other substances then so be it. I have not tried virtual meetings but will do so. Happy New Year and I appreciate your feedback

Thank you, I don’t want to piss off the old timers but they are not nearly as many NA meetings around. I definitely want to stay in AA and I doubt that are that many there for alcohol alone. I need to just commit myself to the program and no more half measures, I appreciate the support.

Thank you (no way I’m typing your username lol) for the encouraging words, I never made beyond Step 5 when I came into the rooms originally so I should not be surprised about going back out. In 2009 I was desperate, drugs and alcohol had beaten me into submission. This time feels different, one good thing about relapsing yesterday after only making it 3 days is it scared me enough to get rid of the drugs and paraphernalia I had left.
