A London gym is offering a "Chav Fighting" class: [link]
Chav Fighting techniques include the "haymaker" and the good old-fashioned headbutt. He described the soon-to-be-extinct chav as "scourge of modern-day Britain" and, inevitably, cited "the rise in knife crime" as a solid reason why white collars should learn the crimebusting benefits of the Glasgow Kiss.
In perhaps the most first world of problems, I came perilously close to running out of room on my DVR's terabyte hard drive. Without quick action this morning, something might have failed to record.
Also, something I find really annoying, advertisements on a DVD I have purchased. On well, once it has been ripped and put on my DVR's second terabyte drive that's reserved for Xvid videos (all of it either ripped from purchased DVDs or recorded personally off the air and edited) then that won't be an issue. Still it bugs me.
Every once and awhile I end up telling the kids, like an old person, that they don't know how good they have it TV wise just turning on the TV and having a huge digital video library available to them.

Conversations I'll someday have with my daughter that will make little to no sense to her no matter how much I try to explain
Ah, brave new world with TiVo in it!
Every so often now I start thinking that one of those new two terabyte drives would be nice to have in my DVR.
I'm working on a column sort of like that blog, Gud. My dad didn't have electricity until he was 11. We have broadband, a Wii, cellphones and a van with a DVD player in it.
It's amazing how fast the tech is evolving.
And yet, still no TRANSPORTER.
mac who did not have a phone in his home for his first 4 years and who I do not believe saw more than a few people with cell phones, he cannot believe a world without answering machines and multiple numbers for people.
I remember when I bought my first Zip drive.
I'd like to have a Wii, but I don't think I could talk my wife into one.
My Comcast dvr has 80 hours of space available. Total. Which sucked when I had all ten hours of the miniseries of Planet Earth in HD on it--that sucked up more than 40 percent of space.
