Bossofuringirl being out of town, I was challenged with the dread task of *programing the vcr*. I can aviate and network computers and overhaul porsches but the vcr was a formidable, never attempted head scratcher. Of course I can eject/insert a tape and manage the >> > << selections on the console — but the remote(s)?
