So a nice new TIVO sits under our TV. I managed to find one yesterday. After visiting a lot of stores online, I started with the bricks and mortars store. I found out that only Best Buys is carrying TIVO now in our area. One salesman just couldn't understand why I just didn't upgrade my cable and get a DVR from them. Let's see.....I pay nothing for basic basic cable. I would have to upgrade to the $70 a month plan and then add on for the box. No, I don't think so....already looked at that. So I went to Best Buys. Got a salesgirl who really knew nothing. I knew more than she did. Anyway I bought the last dual tuner TIVO on their shelves....everything is moving to HD of which I am not. So we installed it this morning and let it do its thing. It phoned home a few times setting itself up. We could attach it to the phone line or to the internet network. We opted for the phone line because we could get to it easiest. So after it got done doing whatever it was doing it let me program all my shows. I set them up for the whole season and told it to NOT record re-runs. Got to like that feature and it will also follow the shows if the network should change date and time. Got to like that also...no more having to remember to set up that last Survivor show because it is always on Sunday. And so now I should never miss another episode of "House".
P.S. And Scott, the fifth season started here and it is excellent....like what it was in the beginning.
