Kerri Strug's brother Kevin was a cheerleader at the same time I was at my university.
Huh! I do want to call her now, just to hear her voice.
Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Our wings are not tired.
Vortex, I got that e-mail too. And I literally JUST switched to digital cable on Saturday and was wrestling with the IR and my Series 2 Tivo last night. I ended up calling it a night at 1AM. I am so ready to hit the "BUY" button on this deal.
You go first...!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I never think of it when I want to cook a whole chicken!
Didn't you roast one just the other day?

No I did not. And even if I did, it's been months since I thought about going to the pollo vivo (halal!) place.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Bon (and anyone else interested), the TiVo offer is here: [link]
It's not listed on the main purchase page, but the email offer said that you're welcome to forward it to your friends, which I figure I'm doing more efficiently this way...

No I did not.
With like a bajillion (or 50) cloves of garlic? No?
My brain is very fragile.
Okay. Off to sleep now.

I got the email too and was all "...ohhhhh! Lifetime subscription!"

Found out my tax refund today. bigger than I expected. like much. I actually thought I might pay this year. so, I guess I need to adjust some witholdings and get more cash in my paychecks.

Do it! Do it! I took advantage of their last offer (I refuse to pay attention to the numbers and see which is the better deal) and just knowing that every channel change will be precise is tremendous comfort. Then! Dual tuners!
Of course it's just occurred to me that they said that the HD TiVo would be able to use network-attached-storage. I should peek into that for bulking up my system.

Notes to anyone considering a lifetime subscription: that means lifetime of the machine, not the lifetime of you. If the machine breaks down after the warranty expires, that's it.
Supposedly. Mine broke after the warranty expired, and I called their support line, and they said that if I bought a new machine from them over the phone -- a refurbished one, the same model as my broken old one -- rather than buying a new one at a store or on their website, they could transfer the account over to the new machine, and I could keep the lifetime subscription. And then, after two refurbished ones in a row broke after less than a month, they sent me a brand-new dual-tuner 80-hour one for free (my old one, and the refurbished ones, had been single-tuner 40-hour.)
