TiVo
Jennifer sent me a link on TiVo today. PluggedIn: TV Viewers Find TiVo Addictive.
The basic just of it is this: TiVo is good, people love it, but it causes some of them to watch more tv than the used too.
I used to be like this, when I first got my TiVo (in May of 2000), I had suggestions turned on.. and freaked out when I had tons of stuff “I had to watch”. My good friend Paul said turn it off, you don’t have to watch them.
Smart man! 
I’ve found recently that if you leave stuff in the “Now Playing” list, eventually you care not to watch it. I had 3 West Wings, and I didn’t bother watching it. Basically I didn’t want to take 3 hours of my time to “catch up”.
My favorite new show? Joan of Arcadia. I find it intriguing that she can talk with God. Probably comes from me volunteering so much with the kids at Lake Grove. Anyway, it’s highly recommended, set your season pass up right now.
