You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Huh.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So...podcasting. Apparently I am one of the few people who didn't know about this. I think it is really cool.

Does anyone know if there is a blog out there that discusses cool podcasts?

I don't like ipodder.org's lack of search engine and I would like to read an assessment of podcasts before taking the time to download them.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, help! I'm setting up my new (very lovely, thanks for the advice, 'ffistas) laptop. I finally got it cooperating nicely with my home wireless network. So now I'm setting up profiles.

Thunderbird claims that it automatically imports from Mozilla profiles without me having to do anything. It did this just fine for the first (of four) profile I set up. For the second one (and all subsequent ones) it doesn't offer me the wizard, and when I try to import, it doesn't offer me Mozilla as one of the options I can import from.

Any ideas?

If I only had a brain...

DAMN. My TiVo recorded the amazing race instead of LOST. Where can I find torrents nowadays?

"There are two sorts of people in the world: those who believe Joss Whedon is a genius and those who are wrong." - Connie Ogle, Miami Herald

I almost made the same mistake (I had TAR7 as a higher priority season pass, never expecting a conflict) but remembered to check my to-do list because I'm running out of room on my Tivo. If you can't get it via torrent, let me know and I can copy it to disc.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Well, tvtorrents.tv, actually. Or btefnet.com, org, net, info...

DCJ, that's a different site (which you might already know). I like the one I mentioned because it's simple to navigate and it's been around forever. They only do television, specifically current stuff.

I guess my main objection is that tvtorrents.com is a login site that makes you register.

As far as I know, tvtorrents.tv and btefnet have been around longer and do not require a login, credits, or have glitzy ads.

They also only do TV shows.
