That&#8217;s okay, but sometimes I like to watch TV while I eat dinner.  So, I thought, I&#8217;ll just watch an episode of the Office (which my parents lovingly gave me for Christmas).  So I popped in the DVD, and hit play.  Nothing happened.  The DVD screen said &#8216;reading&#8217;.  Tried hitting play again.  Still nothing.  So then I tried ejecting the DVD so I could clean it off and make sure it was aligned correctly.  Nothing happened!  And try as I might, turning the DVD player on and off, unplugging it, etc., I could not (and still cannot!) get the DVD player to open!  or to play!  Sorry, episodes 1-6 of season two&#8230; I guess you won&#8217;t be getting watched anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>EDIT: I just searched for how to force open a DVD player, and someone on <a href=\"http:\/\/answers.yahoo.com\/question\/index?qid=20071222150911AA97IRn\">Yahoo Answers<\/a> reported fixing the problem with this method: &#8220;I got mad pressed open, hit the dvd player on the top and it opened&#8221;  I figured I might as well try it&#8230; and IT WORKED!  I hit the DVD player a few times, the motor started whirring (hadn&#8217;t been doing that before), and after a few tries&#8230; TA-DA!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>so last night, my cable was out.
