I'M FREAKING OUT, MAN!

comcast dvr

comcast came by to swap out my digital cable box for a hot dvr cable box. it's a motorola 62xx series. so far it's pretty cool. $10 extra a month. i'm still getting used to the new remote. the numbers dialpad used to be up top where it is now below. it's like bizzaro remote.

i'm hoping this will make my tv watching more efficient. if i could record most of my shows for the week and watch them all in one day in a consolidated block, it would open up a ton of evening time over the week for me.

this is what i watch:

• sunday: simpsons, arrested development, extreme makeover home edition
• monday: 24
• tuesday: house
• wednesday: lost, alias
• thursday: the oc

there's also mythbusters. and don't forget the return of chappelle's show on the 16th of february.

CHARLIE MURPHY!

p.s. looking over that list, i must look like a tv whore. i guess i am.

oh

why was i not informed of portishead earlier? >:(

listen

the birds are already 7 point underdogs. it's understandable though. the patriots are a great team. probably one of the best teams ever.

but you know what? the eagles are a good team too. ferocious defense. and mcnabb.

with or without owens, they'll put up good fight.

omg 24

that was the greatest 12 minutes ever.

EVER.

battlegrounds

apparently, intelligent design is being taught in the pennsyltucky part of pa. :roll:

preface: i was raised catholic very late (9-ish on) although i'm not really buying what they're selling anymore. i think creationism and evolution can co-exist but i'm more science > faith.

so, i'm reading a little bit about their "theory" (which sounds a lot like creationism with bigger words) and it seems like most of their theory is "what's wrong with evolution" rather than "this is science and these are the facts that support it." attack the competition rather than actually prove your shit is solid.

and when did ID get the theory designation? i'm more pissed about this than anything.

theory, in a scientific context, means an established idea supported with evidence that survives peer review. not quite law because we can't prove it 100% but it's been pretty solid so far (mainly because of the small technical detail that we haven't been able to observe evolution over millions of years). like gravity. evolution. to a lesser extent, string. electrical. etc.

i don't think ID has any of this going on. it can't play with the big boys yet.

i've also noticed that amazon.com's review system has become an evolution/ID battleground. evolution books have pro-ID reviews trying to shit all over them and vice-versa. people are probably assigning biased reviews without reading the books, marking reviews as helpful/unhelpful, and recommending books in addition/instead of whatever book they're shitting on. pretty wild stuff.

i'll be picking up these two books to see what's going on.

anyway, this is why we can't have nice things.

24 is on.

OMG EAGLES

that's right! that's right!

RIOT!

here's johnny :(

johnny carson is dead? :'(

1-23 NEVER FORGET

let's go eagles

~` OMG 40 MINUTES '~

edit: preparing to riot regardless of score.

still snowed in

anyway, there's 9 inches of snow that's keeping me from civilization right now. tonight, i will start digging a tunnel through to the food mart.

FOLLOW ME. FOLLOW ME TO FREEDOM!!!.

so i have a bottle of champagne if the eagles win tomorrow. and a bottle of rum if they lose. seriously. i'll be rioting regardless tomorrow at 6:30.

i fixed it

config file stuff, bitch.

ok

ok i'm pretty sure i broke the admin.

snowed in

gonna try to figure out how this blogging thing works
