So, on FJ's advice of the past three years (and yesterday afternoon), I finally got around to buying a Tivo this afternoon. After setting up a few shows that I knew we'd want to watch, I clicked on the recommendations button. What's on the very first list of things Tivo thinks I should watch? Brave New Girl, a made-for-TV movie produced by Britney Spears (and her mother). I may have to record it just to find out whether it's more vapid than Glitter.

In other news, Kelly made molten chocolate cake, which is really good despite a slight recipe-scaling mishap. Unfortunately, the recipe only really scales down to 4, so we had to eat it two nights in a row. Next time she makes it, I should remember to invite friends over.

It obviously thinks you are a straight guy who wants to ogle anything Britney, seeing that you thumbed Monday Night Football and some reality shows up.

I hadn't realized that I could thumb up Monday Night Football out of season. I thought I'd have to wait until the fall.

What, are there no reruns?

Such a hardship.

Maybe Kelly programming a bunch of her favorites....

Kelly was very afraid that she would no longer be able to watch television because it would be too complicated.

She has a very legitimate point. I hope her fears go away with some use of the device.

Congratulations on your new purchase! I can't stand to watch t.v. the old-fashioned way anymore! I have a copy of O'Reilly's Tivo Hacks if you want to borrow it sometime.

Convince Tony

Could you *please* convince Tony that we need TiVo? I've been trying for months now and he's not budging.

I'd say try buying him a house, but you guys did that pretty recently so you'll have to come up with another strategy.

I'm thinking weeks of gratuitous sex might do it.

it's probably going to be really hard to get volunteers for "molten chocolate cake night." perhaps you should import people?
