Dark Bilious Vapors

But how could I deny that I possess these hands and this body, and withal escape being classed with persons in a state of insanity, whose brains are so disordered and clouded by dark bilious vapors....

08/20/2005: Now, For The True Couch Potato..


...Or the truly lazeee...

"Dan Conroy of Cary and brother David Conroy of Barrington are each married with children and they enjoy renting movies.

But they didn’t enjoy piling the kids into the car, getting them out of the car, going into the rental store, selecting the films, piling the kids back in the car and finally going home.

“That just took too long,” said Dan Conroy. “That’s when we came up with the idea of movies delivered to your door.”

About two years ago, they started DVD Revolution, an online DVD rental service at www.dvdrev.com that delivered the films within an hour along with a theater-sized box of popcorn to your door.

Initially, the business served McHenry County residents. Now, it has expanded to some Northwest suburbs, including Palatine and Hoffman Estates with plans to license territories soon in Geneva, North Aurora, Elgin, Batavia and Rockford.

DVD Revolution, which has about 3,000 registered members, has been growing along with the DVD rental industry nationwide.
