I got my Tivo box for free (from a neighbor) and then activated it and bought 3 years of service. Tivo is now offering me $50 off for an upgraded box that will allow both Netflix viewing and recording 2 shows at once. My 3-year plan will rollover onto it and then I'll pick up with a new plan next spring. I'll probably do it before the day is over, just want to make sure I am not maxing out another card.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why did my phone just reboot mid-post?
What I meant to say was:
Big boy Owen!
One of my car windows is stuck in the down position. The hits, they just keep on coming.

Oooh, that is a good deal.
Are TiVos still as popular as they once were? I am the only person I know who has one in NS, because most people have DVRs through their cable company. I love my TiVo more that a human should...especially now that it's network w my computer and I can transfer back and forth.

I think most people get a dvr through the cable company, it is cheaper if you are paying for cable, BUT, I don't have cable, so for me, a tivo and service is cheaper.
I never got the one I have now working wirelessly, but if I get this new one I really want that and I want it hooked up through my computer if possible.

“Not dead yet!”
I hate my satellite company's DVR and miss my Tivo immensely. But the Tivo 3 and our satellite weren't compatible.
The satellite co's DVR is illogical.

We still use my homemade DVR with two tuners and 2TB of space.

I only spent, like, two days in Paris and now I want to go back RIGHT NOW.

Zen, I started with Paxil and transferred seamlessly over to Celexa, which maybe isn't quite as effective, but doesn't make me gain any more weight.
