(You got me with that one!!! I had to stop and laugh.)

When you are buying a home, you run down in the basement to make sure you have a special CED room big enough to house your growing collection of CEDs, CED players, monitors, A picture of Gene Kelly advertising RCA Selectavision Video Disc Players, framed on the wall!!!

Very Happy When you ask a local repair shop who knows nothing of the format or just too outdated and you say do you fix CED players and the guy on the other line says sure we fix Cd players but you say CED players twice and his reply is the same 'till you have to say do you fix C E D players slowly and clearly and then Capacitance Electronic Disc so they understand then they say no like they have no clue or think you are weird for not wanting a Blue Ray player. You know you're addicted when the next movie you want on CED is all of the old Star wars movies IV V VI unless you got them with a player or before you had player to use as a cup holder or face fan or just cuz the artwork and they look cool. When you borrow money to buy discs on ebay that the seller has claimed they cannot test because they have no player. When you look at the CED Magic website a least once a week. When you tell a stranger or cashier at the store you bought a CED player. When your DAD tells you why do you want that, that is obsolete and you agree and get it anyway. When you start dusting your room and house so it doesn't get inside the sleeves and player when before you were a complete slob with the pizza boxes and all.

You know when you're addicted when:You are on this website more than 3 times daily. You know you're addicted when someone mentions they have and or are selling or giving away N.F.L. Football C.E.D.-2,RCA Video Communications '83 - Edition 1,RCA Video Communications '83 - Edition 3,Service Alignment Disc*,Service Test Disc ,Story of O, and Walk Through the Universe A,you actually get a fix or an immediate hard on. You know when you're addicted when: you push over elderly people at estate or garage sales that you know will turn up the goods and even will do to get even a broken CED player and Not so good looking Caddies. and last but not least You know when you're addicted when: You start buying CED players for your friends and family so when you go to their house they have something stimulating enough so you can be there instead of being at your own place watching your favorite movies or any part of your collection all day oh ya.

Someone is selling their entire CED collection, and you are willing to buy all of it just because they have 1 disc that you really want.

You'll walk blocks and get on a public bus with a large and heavy box of CEDs because it is always worth the effort.

Something I'm recently guilty of, drive from Seattle to Portland because you saw a craigslist ad and thought it was too good to pass up. Laughing

But that's not an addiction, the highway is really nice until you reach Portland...

And I've been to Walla Walla a few times, Tri-Cities, Spokane and Aberdeen and was at a convention in Seattle back in 1992...MC Hammer was playing the Paramount the day after I left and the emergency vehicles were thick as skeeters going past Macy's or the Sheraton every five or six minutes.

Don't have my squished pennies with the Space Needle on them anymore though. Sad

You're right kitchensynch, I was technically coming from Tacoma, but it was a nice day for a driver, and the gentleman I bought from ended up being a nice enough guy. Goodtimes. I'm sorry to hear about your Space Needle pennies.

Guilty! I did a 12 hour round trip two years ago to buy my first batch of 80 movies and 1 broke SJT- 400. I guess I have been addicted since day one. Lol!

You may be addicted to CED's if you have printed a master list and highlighted the movies you want and given the list to your wife/girlfriend. So she can better select your birthday/x-mass presents.

Bonous if you color coded it to indicate movies you have, but want backup copies of.

You may be addicted to CEDs when you dream not once, but twice, about finding a Hitachi VIP201P in the thrift store.

I have a lot of thrifting dreams.
