OK, I had to tell you guys and I figured I would post on this forum since the regulars here know me and know I am not trying to brag. I'm just excited. Anyway, I just bought a Samsung 52" LCD after a long search. I tried to buy it from Circuit City but they would not honor their own web price (Long story resulting in me smashing my cordless phone! ). What a bunch a crooks! I ended up buying it online from Amazon. I save about $500 dollars over Circuit City. So screw you CC! I have never bought anything this expensive online before so hopefully everything will go fine. Paid with Amex so I have protection. Should be here either Wednesday or Friday but I am guessing it will be next week with the holiday. No big deal.

I am also having a custom media center built that will sit below the LCD. The LCD will hang on the wall and the media center will be about 32" high and 72" long and 24" deep. The builder is custom building it for me so it will be plenty deep for all my equipment. The wife and I checked out some furniture stores today and all the media centers we found just seemed to be cheap crap and not really big enough to fit a "real" receiver in. A friend of ours uses a Amish furniture builder for all his furniture. It's all custom made and solid wood and amazingly beautiful. So we checked him out and we now have a media cabinet/center being built with solid hickory that will cost about double the cost of the TV. Doh! But, it will be beautiful and will last forever. I don't mind spending money for quality furniture.

Anyway, just had to tell you guys. When I get it set up, PARTY AT MY HOUSE! G'Man, bring the girls!
