Saving Private Ryan 60th Anniversary Two DVD Set Karma.

One DVD is the feature film, the other DVD is Bonus Features. There is NO DTS sound, only Dolby Digital. Like new. There are a couple of small marks on the bonus DVD from a small nub of casting flash in the book holder, but it doesn't look bad enough to affect playing it. I removed the casting flash.

Lets have some fun. Multiple choice, you don't have to have the correct answers to win. Karma open to any Club Polk member. Karma ends Sunday, July 31'st at 4PM CST.

1) Why would he do this?

A) He is running for office and needs votes.
B) He ordered it from an online etailer who said it had DTS and it didn't. When he complained, they refunded his money and said keep it.
C) Your answer.

2) Why doesn't he give to to his friends?

A) He doesn't have any friends.
B) They need to have the DTS version of a movie if its available.
C) Your answer.

3) Why doesn't he keep it for himself?

A) He took advantage of the etailers mistake and orderd hundreds of DVD's that claimed they had DTS and made out like a bandit.
B) He obtained a DTS version and doesn't need this one.
C) Your answer.

4) Why doesn't he sell it on Ebay?

A) They don't fetch much used on Ebay.
B) What's $8 compared to future karma.
C) Your answer.

5) Would he tell us which etailer he ordered it from?

A) Yes, but it would cost a percentage of the take.
B) No, they already sent two big guys over with no necks who advised him to say nothing.
C) Your answer.

    1-C He wants to see how many Polkies make fools of themselves qualifying for this karma.

    2-C He is afraid to find out what his friends may give him back.

    3-C He hates Tom Hanks, his girl friend made him buy it, and she just left him.

    4-C With the new EBay fees, he would end up owning EBay money.

    5-C No, because he doesn't remember.

    Why would he do this?
    His Dr. Phil self help book said he needs to be a "more giving person".
    Why doesn't he give to to his friends?
    He tried to give it to both of them. One refused and is still sobbing uncontrolably over the "gesture" and the other simply barked and "played dead".
    Why doesn't he keep it for himself?
    He still can't figure out how to make it play on his VCR.
    Why doesn't he sell it on Ebay?
    Ebay...Ebola...Eminem...****...This E stuff just scares him...
    Would he tell us which etailer he ordered it from?
    Sure, www.tookyourmoney.com probably wouldn't mind.


    Sorry...it's a slow day and I'm pissed because my golf game got canceled...

    I'm in.
