Monday Thoughts
* This weekend, in a word sucked. Too many tornado warnings and a 25 foot tree is now horizantal in my front yard. Oh well, who needs $550 when it can be literally put in a wood chipper?
* Further, my DCH Motorola HDDVR died for the second week in a row when trying to record “Generation Kill.” I have to wait 3(!) days to get a replacement so instead I just bought an HD Tivo and we’ll get them to install a cable card. I can’t wait to have sanity in my TV viewing life again, not having to worry if something recorded or not or if the thing reboots right in the middle of watching TV.
* Because I’m returning my 2nd HD box, I’m going to use a Pinnacle HDTV stick that has QAM cable for HD broadcasts. Trying to set that up was not easy–keep getting a weird error driver “This requires a participation window”…whatever that means.
* I have SuperLiga Fever…semifinals next Wednesday!
* The Orioles lost their umpteenth Sunday game in a row. Not very impressive.
