This past Christmas, I was at my aunt & uncle’s house for our usual family get-together. We wanted to play some Wii, so it was up to me to connect it to their Sharp LCD TV so we could laugh hysterically at family members playing Just Dance 2. Poking around behind the TV, I noticed something strange… composite cables for audio/video. I actually did a double-take because I knew they had a blu-ray player… They [...]

OMG! A new iPhone will probably be released this year! Oh, wait… duh. In an event that is surely one of the craziest things I’ve followed and read about, a possible “prototype” for Apple’s 4th generation iPhone (casually dubbed iPhone 4G or iPhone HD), surfaced in the real world. In a bar. From a drunk guy’s pocket. Thing is, not only did it surface there… he LOST IT THERE. Even doing “real world testing” … [...]

I’m impatient enough to use my AMEX on this one. Though it will just be paid off on Friday anyway. That’s right, I couldn’t wait 5 more days. Suck it. New Camera: GoPro HD Motorsports Hero New Mount: GoPro Rollbar Mount (for my harness bar) New Memory: 16GB SDHC Card (for teh vidz) That should about cover the fun for this season. Better quality videos. Better quality audio (most important here). And possibly a cool [...]

FINALLY. Lost is returning to ABC. It feels like this has been dragging on for like 5 years… oh wait, it has. I never got into Lost when it started. Don’t think I even watched a single episode. Eventually I got into it at some point by downloading full seasons… um… illegally. Starting February 2nd, Lost returns for its final season. Hopefully with some damn answers. Until then, I’m starting to catch up on past [...]

The Life of Me
Finally was able to order the BigTen Network. I noticed it has been showing up on my Time Warner Cable channel guide for a little while so they must have finally worked out some sort of deal to offer it (last year was basically Satellite only to my knowledge). So I had to add it for this year to get all of the PSU games. Found out that it was only $4/mo for an entire [...]

It seems like Time Warner Cable is getting its ass in gear with regards to HD channels. I noticed recently that they had finally (FINALLY!) added ABC HD. Yay for PSU games in HD! They had also added CBS HD at that time as well… but who really watches CBS? Last week I saw that they added SPEED HD as well. Yay for Formula 1 races in HD! Oh… and USA HD also got added. [...]

When I upgraded my receiver a couple months ago, I didn’t go for the lowest possible one I could use… I figured I’d eventually want some more expansion abilities and went for the next step up. Good thing. I now have 3 different sources connected via HDMI and another pair of devices connected through component HD cables. Jen thinks I’m crazy. I tell her it’s worth it. Oh wait.. what am I rambling about? Jen [...]
