    I always leave the TV in the bedroom on during sleep. Woke up the other night when one of Billy Macy's annoying commercials came on and was so ****ed at him because he yells and can't talk low like normal people!!

    I want a tv that will mute all commercials - they turn up the volume so that you can still leave the room and hear them - why do you think I am leaving the room to begin with? DUH!

    No kidding!!! I swear Mama if you were to invent a TV that would mute the stinking commercials you would get RICH real fast, or at least some kind of a box that would filter out the Ads, but after a few million people had them you'd never be able to sell as many as initially.....cause no one could hear the commercials for them anymore But by then you'd be rich and word of mouth would be your best advertising, and you would still be making a killing, and you could buy that ranch!!! And I could come live and work off the fat o' tha land at your place!!!

    That loudmouth is on the bedroom TV now!! Just killed it by changing the channel.

    My VCR in the living room does that. Well, sort of. Whenever a program is recorded that has commercials, during playback, the machine fastforwards through any commercial breaks in the show recorded that picked up any of them. And of course, when you FF, the sound is automatically muted or silenced.

    Yeah, I'm old school.

    I thought to myself; Why waste time with buying and using a culinary crap gadget that supposedly lets you cook pasta in the microwave, since it needs boiling water to cook the pasta anyway? What precious amount of time is being saved by doing this?

    I spent $80.00 on an Emerilware 8-qt Stainless Steel Stock Pot with a Pasta Insert which I enjoy using very much! It replaces that ill-fated red Pasta Pot which the coating had started to peel and flake. Remember that one? It was also one of the culinary crap gadgets seen on TV.

    Doesn't your TV's remote have it's own MUTE button?

    Mine does, and so does the cable remote.
