I'm Not Opinionated

Lost & TiVo - Two Posts For The Price Of One

I'm tired and lazy tonight so I am going to blog one post that should probably be two. Please forgive the faux pas. In my defense both of these happened yesterday so you could lump them into one post...but I digress!

When I got home last night I was more than happy to see that my new TiVo had arrived from Toshiba. After a little hassle, Toshiba agreed to send me a replacement. The hassle really wasn't Toshiba...they were more than great at helping me out...though their vendor who repairs the units sucks royally! The replacement they sent was much better than the unit I sent to be repaired. This one has a bigger hard drive and a CD burner installed. Awesome! Only one problem...they did not send a power cord or remote. Power cord...no big deal. I just got one off of another electronic device...I have so few....lol! Remote control....no big deal, I thought. Both units probably use the same one, right? Wrong. Called Toshiba back today. The remote should arrive at the latest in 10-15 days. Oh well, I really can't gripe as they sent me an awesome machine....I can't wait to use it!!!!

The other exciting part of my evening was Lost! It really was an awesome episode last night. Very well done! The episode took us day by day through the first 48 days (length of season one) of the crash victims that were in the tail of the plane. Many explanations were provided...though many were subtle...and you had to think back to the other episodes. I am convinced that if you watch the DVDs in sequence, a lot more is there that you don't observe when waiting a week between episodes. Of course, catching things you missed the first time doesn't hurt either. I can't wait for this weeks episode when both sets of survivors meet! It should be great!!!

Oh yeah, Thanksgiving is one week away! Have to go to bed early this time next week...so we can get up and go shopping early on Friday!
