It might sound like I’ve been posting like crazy tonight, but that’s probably because I have been. I have yet to even post about this week’s television premieres, both season and series, which I may get to this weekend. Anyways, back to the subject above. I’m watching NBC 5 news, after having watched three hours of Friends, Will & Grace, Coupling, and ER. I noticed that I heard several stories that I had already read about on the internet or heard on the radio this morning. For example, I heard about the "Pie House" this morning on the Eric & Kathy Show on WTMX, and I read about the second rejection of the DNC list earlier today on Ars. So, is it really necessary to have the 10 o’clock news anymore? Maybe it’s just me, but I can find most of tonight’s news quickly via the Daily Herald or the Chicago Tribune online or in print. The only reason I watch the news anymore is to wait until the Tonight Show or something similar after the news. What about you?

I have Tivo, how about you? I think my Tivo has 1GB RAM too.
Bob, you can take your 1GB of RAM and ram it where the sun don’t shine…and do it sideways, too.
