In honor of StreetDude and Ceremony Chap, I thought we could have some fun with our own intermission thread of the same topic. Let's play!

Hello, I have an old universal remote, I'm not sure whatthe make or model of the remote is because it's some cheap piece of crap that I bought 10 years ago, but none the less i want to you help me make it work my brand new Sony TiVo. Actually, when I say "help", actually, I want you to do all the work, and don't bother posting your response here because I' WAY to busy to check back, please just email me everything.

TIA
Sumb as Dhit

Before we can help you, we'll need a small blury picture of that remote.

At least give us hint, like say the
number of buttons it has?

I have this remote I don't know who makes it. How do I set it up so that I can get into he menu system on my projector. How do I set it up so that my 1 year old son can play his favorite DVD from the changer?

That remote appears to be made by RadioShack.
Hope this helps you.

No, Ken, you're wrong.

It's the GreenDot Power, made by the CBL VCR TV company, which is located in VOL MUTE, CH.

If you look closely, you can see that it can be used to control your REW, your PLAY, and your FFWD.

It will work in the REC room, when you have to STOP, and your cat can use it with his PAUSE.

The cryptic message at the bottom can't be translated. Good luck!

I'm sorry!

Accept no substitutes, accept your fate, accept nothing. No apologies.

We constantly and very loudly apologize... Instead of turning our backs to the accusers, as there is nothing to apologize for, and nobody to apologize to, we swear again and again that it is not our fault... Isn't it long overdue to respond to all these and all future accusations, reproaches, suspicions, slanders and denunciations by simply folding our arms and loudly, clearly, coldly and calmly answer with the only argument that is understandable and accessible to this public: 'Go to Hell!'?

Who are we, to make excuses to them; who are they to interrogate us? What is the purpose of this mock trial where the sentence is known in advance? Our habit of constantly and zealously answering to any rabble has already done us a lot of harm and will do much more. ... The situation that has been created as a result, tragically confirms a well known saying: "Qui s'excuse s'accuse."

Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuse meeeeeeeeeeeee!

"God told me" is no excuse for stupidity.

How about: "The devil made me do it"? "I was drunk, and therefore not responsible for my actions"? "It's your fault because you did not stop me"?

So Jim, you're saying the code is DVD/0666 then?
