my so-called blog (redux)

So wow. “storm passing” kinda didn’t make it - seems to be now, though. The flea problem seems to be subsiding - an aside, if you hadn’t heard: after we got back from Tupelo the house had a whole bunch of fleas in it. Bombed it a couple times and it seems to be ok now. On the plus side, I had a good excuse to mop the floors and rent a rug doctor for the furniture.

I’ve also gotten a TiVo. A bit late to the bandwagon, maybe, but here I is! I kinda wish I had gotten it sooner, as it’s really cool and also functional at the same time. It’s almost Mac-like in how it takes care of little things. Frex, when you fast-forward through commericals, all you have to do it hit the play button when you see your show and it bonks back to the beginning to the show. There’s even a nice API and a Web services sort of thing for it too. Kicks the crap out of the DVR Comcast provides.
