I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

I believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers

Hi Sophie Max & Olivya! I'm not an East Coaster, I just like to come in here and complain about Space with the other Canadians.

Can I just say that climbing over the four-foot high windrows left behind by snow plows is really tough when you're 8.75 months pregnant.

Also, EI's online mat leave application sucks. I had to start over 3 times b/c I didn't understand what the hell the question meant, or hadn't got the particular piece of info they wanted at hand. I'm sure their keystroke analyzing program now thinks I'm trying to cheat them. Since RevCan already hates me this is not good.

I can't even.

Apparently, Rogers is offering some service that is TiVo-like now. I think you have to have digital cable to get it, but I'm not positive about that. I meant to inquire with them about it before Christmas, but the holidays happens and, y'know. I'm moving at the end of February, I'll see if I can find out about getting this service set up once I move in.

I haven't checked with Space as to what is going on with their scheduling. Don't they usually post up an FAQ with stuff like that?

I checked the Space forums where a moderator usually provides good info, but there was nothing saying why Angel was moved.

Hey Dani, when are you due?

My friends have the Eastlink version of this. I think you can subscribe to shows, and tape ahead and pause live TV and all, but it doesn't have all the smart finding stuff of TiVo, such as search for an actor.

Yeah, Shaw cable sells something called a "digital video recorder" as well. But you have to subscribe to their digital cable to get it, and like Sue says it doesn't have all the Tivo-y goodness.

Megan, the official date is the 26th, but given that the Blue-Eyed Boy was nearly two weeks "late" I'm not holding my breath.

Tonight's Angel was fun - a lightweight, amusing episode. I like Harmony in small doses. "I'll go to Mexico, or Cancun."

Angel made me miss old Cordelia.

Me too, Megan.

Like Dani, I like Harmony in small doses. And like Cordelia she more fun all bitchy that simpering.

I was kind of disappointed in the episode but that's ok. There's always next week.

Now, on the OC! When will they kill Oliver! he Must DIE!
