A tape is stuck in my VCR!

I think one of the mechanisms that "pops" the tape out has finally given up.

It makes me sad. The VCR was a gift from an ex-fiancée. It's been part of my life for ten years. It is a great VCR. Or...it was a great VCR.

I'm so bummed. I love my sweet VCR...it has been a nice companion for ten years. It is still in terrific shape, excepting the part about the tape imprisoned within.

Just had to RAWR there. Thanks for listening.

(plays funeral dirge to vcr)

I understand...my vcr has been with me since I first went to universtity...we're talking the first degree...back in 1994. Yup...and I still have it! Lived through many a failed romance, my son attempting to mail things in it, and all sorts of moves where it was banged around. Soon departing to my new home in May.

I think I will have heartfailure when it goes...they really don't make them like they used to.

BTW: What tape was it?

Exactly! *sigh* This was such a great VCR, and now I'll have to buy the $10 budget econ-o-VCR...

The tape had an episode of House on it, and I was going to record the new episode of House over it. Thank goodness it wasn't the Black Swan...I was watching that a couple days ago and I would have been really upset. Not available on DVD, after all.
