My South Park collection.

Love watching these old VHS tapes. They have previews and clips from Comedy Central shows back in the late 90s. And theres also some exclusive Trey Parker/Matt Stone intros that werent aired anywhere else. Pretty sweet.

I have Vol. 1-12 and the T&P episode as well. Theres still a few oddball tapes lingering out there that I need to get to finish the full collection.

Toshiba DVR620... successful repair today. Spent 6 hours trying to trace down a voltage issue. IR receiver was blown, replaced that, still wouldnt take commands from remote. Did voltage tests on everything in IR path. Was about to give up, decided to jump the IR (-) & IR Cap (+) and that fixed it!

Ran out of room about 10 tapes short of fitting all my favorite stuff on my new shelf. Took me forever to find one and unfortunately it didnt hold as many as it was advertised. I will figure something out for the rest 🫡

FedEx Home Delivery Map? Is this thing just faulty or was my driver literally been in the same small neighborhood for over 6 hours?

I got an alert earlier this morning that my package was out for delivery. I clicked the tracking link. Says my driver is on the way. Shows his name and picture and a map where hes at. Awesome. Original delivery estimate was 11am-1pm. Little after 1pm I checked the tracking, it was updated to 1pm-3pm. Driver was still in the same neighborhood he was in at 10am (this was after 1pm at the time). No big deal, I wait until 3pm. Nothing. Check the map, he is STILL in that same neighborhood since 10am. Tracking updated to 'By end of day'. More time goes by, I check at 6pm, no joke hes still in that same neighborhood. The truck on the map has moved around to different spots in the neighborhood so I assume its working at least somewhat? Well 7:26pm my package gets delivered. Map shows the truck at the end of my street. I cant imagine that it takes 9 hours to deliver packages to 1 small neighborhood. But who knows, I am just curious at this point.

Does anybody know why that dark line keeps scrolling on and off the screen? It seems to be almost in a sync type frequency that it happens. Its not the screen, it only happens when playing VHS.

Hey guys, I am looking for a replacement slipcover for a loose Seed of Chucky that I have. I have done some research, and I am not really wanting to do a 'custom' sleeve. Does anyone know anyone, or know of a way to make a duplicate of the original? I really like the original back cover. Thank you!

Unbelievable score on this one for $2 because it had a broken flap door. Easy fix, swapped one over from a parts tape. Had to share this for the IYKYK crowd! 📼

This one was a grail find for me... it was in a filthy rental box that was in rough shape. But the slip was still in good shape so I swapped it into a clear sleeve. Wish it wasnt cut, but I will take what I can get!

Finally found a clean THX Halloween. Wish it was the lenticular cover, but it was too clean to pass up!

Just picked up today... should I remove the shrinks? Theyre pretty yellowed and dingy looking.

When I asked the installer if the freon levels were all good on the new unit post-install, he said that the system came precharged for up to 25 feet of refrigerant line so its good to go. I got curious and looked up the instruction manual, it says that it comes charged as *sufficient for 15 feet*.

My TXV coil is in the attic of my 2 story house. I did some simple math and I think theres at least 30 feet of line from the condensor outside, to the coil in my attic.

Long story short... is it possible that the new condenser unit is short cycling because theres not enough freon? Would the extra ~15ft difference between the 15ft line precharge and 30ft actual line be enough to cause short cycling?

Thank you for any help you can provide.
